Lily's Birthday

For Lily's 3rd birthday I knew I had make another set of matching pillowcase dresses for her and Claire.  Especially since the one's I made last year were my first ever attempt at making clothing, so I knew I could do a better job.

I also wanted to try doing some smocking so I made an adorable smocked top, complete with a little heart pocket and a matching skirt for her too.

And though my first attempt at smocking is by no means perfect, I think I did a decent job and am looking forward to doing some more.  (Practice makes perfect.)  One day maybe I'll even be good enough to do some tight smocking with embroidery on top?  One can always dream...
