I know I promised the red Spring Showers jacket next, but I finished this little Geranium dress the other day and the weather today was perfect for taking pictures.
Add to that a visit to the park to meet up with Amanda and Lily, and, well, I couldn’t resist.
Although Button is 6, she’s really rather petite, so I cut the size 5 and added an inch to the length.
The fabric is a fairly crisp cotton chambray that I received in the recent box of goodies from Himmelbjerget, lined with white cotton lawn…my go to lining for little dresses as it’s so soft next to the skin.
A little topstitching in white thread added a cute finish and highlights the notch at the neck.
Perfectly matched buttons.
I couldn’t be happier with this little dress. I have more of these planned for this summer.
As an aside, everyone thinks my two are total cherubs…yeah, right! Here they are with Lily taking selfies for Instagram.
I despair!
Anyhoo, the weather is forecast to change tomorrow, so I’m hoping to get shots of the red jacket sooner rather than later.
Until then I do hope you’re enjoying your Monday/Bank Holiday/Memorial Day.
Well done you with these shots. They are fabulous! And what little cuties. 🙂 xx
I had a great teacher! 😉 I’m very pleased with them and editing in RAW is soooooo much easier! Thanks for your time on Monday.
Cherubs are overrated, real kids are much more fun! Beautiful dress and that first picture is so, so cute!
Thank you…that first picture is one of my favourite ones of her. We could almost be in France…
So sweet! I don’t think your kids are cherubs – I think they’ve got loads of personality! So much better!
Personality…I’ll run with that! 😉 Little monkeys, they are!
Absolutely gorgeous (the children and the dress) love the detail on the neckline!
Thank you…I love the neckline too. It’s such a super little pattern. I’ll be making more!
She looks out of a fairy tale. lovely dress, Evie. And the last picture is hilarious…I am sure you have loads of fun with them.
She’s my little Elfin Princess! They are a complete joy…most of the time! 😉
How cute they both are and the dress is gorgeous. x
Thank you…on both counts.
The last photograph really made me smile! The dress (and children) are lovely.
It’s hilarious, no? Thank you.
What a beautiful dress! Love the face pulling selfies too!
They had so much fun with the selfies!
