Little Smocked Dresses and Bon Voyage

Smocked Little Dresses Quilt
Originally uploaded by pipersquilts

 
Love this. This is a shop sample for a quilt shop. I love their doll dresses or as they call them, "Little Dresses." Adorable.  There are close up pictures in their Flickr photostream. Too stinkin' cute!

FYI, the previous post featuring the altered CD, I didn't stitch that. I found it on Flickr.

I have been MIA and I apologize. Life has just been crazy busy with nothing to show for it. Except....


tomorrow, we are "Leavin' on a jet plane..." I'll spare you the singing. But you get my drift. Remember this? Well I FINALLY get to use it!! We are headed over the big pond, now that the volcano has decided to stop erupting. I will return before you know it, hopefully with lots of pictures and maybe SOME fabric. I do plan to at least tour the Royal School of Needlework, even if I don't have time to take a class this trip. I'll have a spot of tea for y'all.

I will leave you with their rendition which is much better than mine.

  8. If you are coming to London and want to buy some special fabric, you might try Joel and Sons off of Edgeware Road. They sell some very special fabric there. And of course there is Liberties on Regent Street. Have a great time!
