Mardel’s little girl is turning 2 soon. She commissioned a couple sundresses from me, giving me freedom to do pretty much whatever. And here’s what I made.



Elena’s a very girly girl and happens to look fab in purple. I hope she likes these!
By the way, I was flabbergasted when I saw this yesterday. Thanks, Craft! And thanks, dear readers, for all your support! What an encouraging day.
We’re going out of town for a week, but I’ll be back soon… :)

Oh that purple is so sweet. Perfect with the little ruffle/bows. CUTE Kristena!

Oh my goodness! What charming dresses! I especially *heart* the leaves on the hem of the cream and purple dress. Were those worked by machine or by hand??

The leaves were done with my machine because I just couldn’t resist! :)

These two dresses are just beautiful! Great choice of fabric and stitchy detail. I have just found your blog and had a quick browse and I am a follower already. Must go start dinner, so I will check back soon. :)

These are so adorable! The lighter colored one looks quite simple as well. I’ve been wanting to make a couple summer dresses for my little one, and I think something like that could be just the ticket!
