Dainty Light Blue

Another project finished!
I just love light blue on baby girls.
This dress was made of Imperial batiste.
The pattern is Chery Williams bishop.



The sleeve...


I embroidered little bullion roses along them hemline.


The plate I used is called Lullaby, from Austrailian Smocking and Embroidery #76.
I just changed the flowers, but the waves are the same.
Don't you miss that magazine? I do!


We went for my daughter's 20 week (21 weeks and 2 days!) ultrasound
today, and we got to see the baby waving at us.
Aren't babies just such miracles? Every single one of them!
I wonder if the baby is a girl that will wear this dress?
If the baby is a boy, the dress will wait
for another grandchild or special friend.
I will be equally excited either way!


Happy Sewing!
