It is such a lovely needleart and I sure enjoy making little dresses and bonnets. And it is SO much fun to smock quilting cottons and use brightly coloured floss to update the look.
That is so pretty! I do have two dresses than my husbands grandmother smocked...she died in the 50's! Both my youngest daughters wore them and I keep one hanging in my sewing room. Does the smocking take a long time to do? I've got grandkids coming, and maybe I should make one for the next little girl?
