Tiny Dresses From My Imaginary Rose Garden

I’ve been in teeny tiny creative mode lately, and I seem to be hooked on pink roses. Here are the latest ensembles to come from my studio: two dress/hat sets for Amelia Thimble and Izzy, and a new dress/hat set for Pukipuki.

All three dresses ended up coordinating nicely together, so I took a group picture of my three tinies all dressed up. Sorry about Amelia Thimble’s strange pose; she was in an animated mood during the photo shoot and refused to stand still unless I held her. Izzy and Sugar behaved like tiny angels.

Is it too soon?

Is it too soon to be “Dreamin’ of Summer?” Amelia Thimble doesn’t think so, and I agree with her. Why not start dreaming, if only just a little bit, about lush flower gardens, picnics in the grass, outings to the beach, or catching some rays by the pool?

Tiny Amelia Thimble whispered in my ear that she is dreaming of a summer garden party, and she is awaiting her very first invitation of the season. Being the life of every party, I am sure it will arrive soon.

While Amelia Thimble is waiting for that first summer party invitation to arrive, she finds the Easter bunny hanging out in my studio.

What a cute pair they make!

Little Lady in Lilac

I’ve never dressed Millie in anything purple or lilac and I really like her in it, don’t you? To me, she looks like a southern belle all dressed up for Easter, a Sunday outing, or even a garden wedding.

When I started making this outfit for Millie I thought I would have to keep the color palette to purples, but I noticed that the roses had the lightest of pinks in them. I found that pink went beautifully with the sweater so kept it as my primary embroidery color. I used the pale pink again for the ribbon tie, purse, tights, and hat. It really warms up the lilac color and livens up what could have been a monochromatic ensemble.
