Smocket
I can finally post pictures of the little apron that I made for Lizzy. She has been reluctant to wear it (ungrateful madam) so I have been unable to take piccies until now. I managed to get a few photos before she realised what I was doing before she lay on the floor having a 'diva' moment. She's 2 on Monday and you sure can tell!
I got the pattern via Kristy and couldn't wait to get started on one. It was quick and easy to make but the finished product was sadly too small for my little girl so I have resized the pattern and just need to find time to make another. Here is the original one though, made with pretty kitten fabric and vintage polka dot so that it is totally reversible. It went down very well at her playgroup where all the mums asked if I could make them one and Alfie wants one in cowboy fabric. I can tell that I will be making a few!

Very sweet indeed!

Thanks for visiting my blog and I think you are right about pebbles, I was a bit excited bout the "mushroom muffin" creation.
Btw I am quite smitten with your sites. I may become a blog-fly here:>
Lizzy looks adorable! Great job Donna.
Ha ha - Lizzy's diva moment is hilarious. She is super cute too!
So great! I have some finishing touches to put on mine. Hopefully will post this weekend.
Tell her next time to kick her feet for a more dramatic effect :-)
lovely apron and what a goreous face on this sweet little lady!
Lizzie is such a little lady, even having a tizzy fit! Love the little smock, very, very cute! Wish I had a little lady to make one of those for!

Hi Donna! It's great to meet another vintage girl! I am going to sit in bed with a cup of tea and read your blog! Already I'm coveting the chair you covered in Sanderson fabric! My bedroom wallpaper is Sanderson-their stuff is so nice isn't it!!
