Yes, it was a little tricky to match the flowers perfectly on the pleated skirt, but I think the result is well worth it. I also added little yoyos on the straps for fun.

Paisley Halter
This 2T Halter was made from the left over scraps of my feather quilt. I originally purchased this little gold floral fabric for the background of that quilt, and it ended up going with a lot of my girls clothes. You will see it in many of my designs.
Open Back Jumper
This dress has a pretty simple silhouette, the details make it special. The bodices has rows of pleats in front, and vintage buttons. But the back is the real surprise...
Girl's Skirts
Here are some examples of skirts I have made in girls sizes. I like to use these pockets which I gather at the top.
The hem of this skirt is a vintage pillowcase, and the pockets were cut from a vintage table cloth.
The details on this are handmade yo-yos layered on top of lace flowers. The fabric was a vintage sheet.
Once again, the pockets are vintage. For this skirt I handsewed the pockets for a more hand carfted look.

Gold Metallic Prints Unite
The bodice and front details are all taken from a vintage 60's home decor fabric. The skirt fabric I got from a cute little fabric store in downtown Taos, NM.

Teeny Weeny Ruffles
I know these aren't the best pictures, but I just had to share the dress. It was a beast to sew. It was falling apart like crazy.
