A family friend made this beautiful dress for Caroline. Thank you so much Robin.
(I have made 2 of these smocked bishop dresses before in my lifetime. 1 for my future daughter in a class about 2 years ago when I was learning to sew and smock and one for a very dear friend. If you got one of these, you know that you are dear to me...granted I made it before I had kids so I had lots of time on my hands. However, I don't think I will be making any bishops for Caroline. By the time I got it made it would be too small. However, they do make "smockables" that are already put together, you just smock them. These dresses take days...not hours to make! So, there you have it...FYI on smocking and sewing!!)
Caroline has really grown in the past week, not sure if these pictures show it or not. I got some really good smiles from her today and it just melted my heart!! She made me feel so loved. I tried to capture her smiling on camera....you know how that goes sometimes.Here are some shots
