A little girl named Ivy is having her first birthday. This is her party dress.

Red gingham with red trim. It’s so classic and so fresh.

I love the choice she made.

Happy Birthday Ivy!

This year I decided to give Isabella a doll for Christmas. I had a favorite doll growing up, and wanted to pass the same one along for my daughter.   I was so happy to find one on ebay since they no longer make them.

I also thought it would be fun to make them matching outfits. Of course that project got left to the last minute, (Christmas eve) but I managed. I’ve never made anything so tiny before. It was a bit finicky, but not too bad.

                                 

So glad I did it, because when she opened her outfit and realized her new doll had the same clothes, she was thrilled!
