I have been busy digitizing and making outfits for the grandkids for Easter.  I took some photos of Saarah’s dress which she loves.  Yes, I have to admit it, it’s another Feliz dress.  I just don’t seem to stay away from that pattern.  I just love the way it looks and I had a hard time convincing Saarah to take the dress off.  She said “it’s so comfy, Grandma”.  I think that means she might actually wear it!

Here are some photos of Saarah in her new dress.  It’s long – she wanted it that way.  I would have put the pocket up higher, but she had a request for a pocket, after I had finished the front of the dress and she wanted the pocket where she could easily reach it.  So, there it is.  A little lower than usual – but Saarah is very happy with it.  And that’s what counts!

The designs used on this dress and on Eliana’s will be up for sale shortly, plus some that I did not use for the dresses but that were a digitizing “by-product”.  The set’s name is:  Daisies and Sweet Flutterbies and will have 10 designs in it.  Look for it to go up soon.

Have a wonderful Spring – or whatever your upcoming Season might be.And should I not be blogging again before Easter, have a blessed Easter.  He is Risen.  He is Risen indeed.

This design has been digitized to be large enough to hold a monogram letter or name, yet still small enough to not be overwhelming. Great on towels, in the corner of blankets, on t-shirts, onesies, etc. The thick top stitching adds a nice decorative touch to the design as well as further secures the edge of the applique from fraying. Place a name or monogram of your choice in the center. Accommodates monogram letters up to 1.25” tall. (not included).
