Lil Blue Boo & Dharma Trading Design Challenge ~Entry #4~

A matching dress for lil'miss Kennadi(14 months old), I have not seen her since last July, love how this photo gives me an idea of how tall she is and how very active, I understand the kinderlocks went on cupboard doors last weekend. There is only so many times a spice rack can take being tossed, thankfully the blender was too heavy for her although she did give it a try.



Like her sister's dress, I submitted as my first entry.
A modified Sienna pattern. I used freezer paper and paper doilies for stencilling. The queen of hearts machine embroidery is from Urban Threads. I added piping at the bodice and a few appliqued hearts. To change things up a bit, I added  rows of ruffled knit at the neckline and at the ankle of the leggings.

No mystry why  this tank top found it's way to a thrift store, never been worn!






Using the hoodie pattern from Lil Blue Boo, I cut up the nasty tank and added some bold colored knits, appliqued on some heart silouettes and TA DA-  'quacked' tops for my granddaughters.
