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.

How about you? Where do you think Millie is off to?

Blue Skies and Pink Roses

What a glorious day this would be! Imagine a garden filled with your favorite pink roses and the most wonderful scent of roses filling the air!

My perfect pink rose garden would include every imaginable shade of pink from the palest “barely there” pink to the darkest “almost red” pink. I would have English Roses as well as Hybrid Tea Roses. I love both of these rose types. What kind of pink roses would fill your perfect pink rose garden?

Patience has a new outfit to show you and it’s filled with pink roses!

Patience found a little bunny hopping around her rose garden. Look at how friendly he is.

Winter Snowflakes

Do you have any snowflakes yet? We don’t have any real snowflakes in northern Illinois. In fact it just got cold enough to produce snow, not rain. I am sure it won’t be long now and we will be enjoying the quiet beauty of a winter wonderland.

To celebrate the start of winter Talyssa has a new ensemble to show you reminiscent of an icy paradise where she is the princess. Her dress is made with a cotton print in violet-ish colored snowflakes. Snowflake embroidery, crystals, pearls, a silver snowflake charm, a glittery ornament, muted shades of color (or no color) make Talyssa’s new outfit perfect to help welcome winter.

If you’d like to make some of your own (virtual paper) snowflakes you can make some online here. I love the sound affects as the snowflakes are being snipped. Here’s the one I made.
