Frocks for inspiration

8:00 am | Posted by Amy | Edit Post
My mum has spent a fortune on new fabrics for sewing baby clothes and wanted some new ideas from me for Elka. These are my two current favourites.

I LOVE this dress for Elka's birthday party as it is going to be polka dot themed :)I wont be having a collar quite like that - a large white expanse will be stained way too quickly!



I like the long line of the skirt in this dress and the waist details both with the fabric bar and the flower..



Mum has also just been lent a smocking machine so she will be playing with smocking too. She is definitely planning an etsty store so stay tuned!

edited to add - I would give the credit for these photos but I cant remember what site they were on!

Polka Dot parties are too cute.

I love the idea of a version of the first dress. So much fun. x

About Me

Amy
I am 30 years old, am a microbiologist with a PhD and love looking after my little farm. I compete in dressage and showjumping with my horses. I have a passion for shopping and a weakness for pretty clothes, shoes and handbags. My husband and I have a gorgeous toddler called Elka and a little bub named Bronte. I am a mother who works and has a career - just don't call me a "working mother". I don't do inside hobbies and craft and have only successfully sewn two things in my life that weren't ripped horserugs. The scientist in me makes me a little cynical and I am more likely to tell you about my life and events then give you a pretty polaroid style picture and an inspiring quote. Not for everyone but I have a bad memory and blogging is my way of recording life :)
