New Dresses to Welcome Spring

Yeah!  It is officially spring.  We made it through the worst winter in recent memory.  I am so, so excited for warm air, spring breezes, flowers, and lots of sunshine.

To celebrate spring I’ve made five new dresses for Amelia Thimble and Izzy.  Each is knit with hand dyed fine lace weight baby alpaca/silk in the palest shades of pure color, no neutrals here.  Each dress has a different type of hat/headband.  I’ve left one without for those little girls with a hairstyle not suitable for hats.  And, of course, colorful floral hand embroidery adorns each dress.

I hope you enjoy the dresses and the new season.

Patience & Izzy’s New Sister Set

Patience and Izzy are feeling so sweet and rosy in their new coordinating outfits.  Patience and Izzy’s cardigan, sweater dress, and hat and are knit in fine lace weight baby alpaca/silk yarn.  It is very soft and has a nice drape to it.  I hand dyed the yarn for Izzy’s set to pick up the blue in Patience’s floral print dress.  Patience’s hat is crocheted in three natural fibers with a brim that can be worn up or down.  The dress’s fabric is a fine cotton print from Japan and features the prettiest pastel flowers and ribbons in pinks, sky blue, green, and yellow.  I used hand dyed silk ribbon and fine English cotton cluny lace for special touches in this coordinating set.

A Breath of Fresh Air

Curtains gently blowing at the open windows, the fresh air invited inside.   Newly bloomed blossoms standing in tiny vases lined up on the windowsill.  Looking outside and seeing freshness and color everywhere.

Such springlike images were going through my mind as I worked on this grouping of dresses for Amelia Thimble and Izzy.

Yes, these thoughts are “all in my head”.  One look out the window and I know that that isn’t reality…yet.

Soon… very soon.
