This pattern is Baby's Ruffle Brimmed Smocked Bonnet" It comes in the same pattern with a little Smocked Dress and is too sweet! Baby Londyns sweet little face (from 5 years ago!) Just a wee bit big but still so cute. The Ruffle is folded back before it is pleated.  So there is the fabric ruffle around her face, and the turned back fabric ruffle, edged in lace. This is a great view  of the Bonnet on a doll. Just a bit of smocking. You can't make just one!  You will be thinking about your next little dress before you even finish the first! The dress that goes with t ..read more

Easter Bonnets - Miss Bufords Baby Bonnet

by Jeannie B.
1y ago
This is one of my all-time favorite Bonnet Classes and Patterns!! I was given the original  Baby Bonnet by a generous friend several years ago.  My friend was given this bonnet by Miss Buford, who was still living at the time.  Her information about the origin of the bonnet was that it was made for her by a family member, perhaps an aunt.  And she recollects that she and her Bonnet were over 100 years old. Many of my designs are inspired by old baby garments. This is one of the few that I tried to reproduce the style exactly. I taught it for SAGA at one of the Nationa ..read more

Baby Londyn This is Londyn wearing Anna's bonnet.  It is adorable on her...well, she is pretty adorable if I do say so my self.  As her Grandmother, I would certainly know!!! Did I mention that you must Bonnet Train a baby?  This is important! Baby Bonnet Training - Put a Bonnet on baby when you bring her/him home from the hospital.  And every time you leave the house.  And just for fun a couple times a day.  They will become used to having the bonnet on their head!

Each triangle is finished with a Lace Insertion and edged with gathered Lace.  They are embroidered before cutting out, which is much easier. You can see the Old Fashione ..read more

Her hoodie reads "I'm a CF Warrior"! Charlotte is my first Great Granddaughter! She was born with Cystic Fibrosis. We found out she had it when she was a few weeks old. It is a genetic disease, that is progressive. You would not know it by looking at her! She is one of the happiest Babys  I know. For her, the life she is living is normal. She doesn't know anything else! But it's not an easy life. There is ongoing research on treatments and hopefully they will find a way to reverse it.   A lot of advancement has been made in the last few decades. But there is a long way to g ..read more

Baby Charlotte in French Acadian Sundress

1y ago
Baby Charlotte  (my one and only Great Grandchild!) is wearing my French Acadian Sundress. I added a Swiss Edging to the hem, attached with entredeux. I also wanted to Smock the Front. I really like it! I pleated a few rows using half space needles. This is the back view.  I didn't smock the back. The front of the Pattern has the lacy version, which is really my favorite. I think I would like to smock this view! She loves her little talking/singing Teapot.   But after awhile, we were glad it had an Off Button!! Happy Stitching!

This photo of Charlotte is from last Christmas. She is wearing the dress featured in Classic Sewing Magazine for Christmas 2021. I used my pattern Old Fashioned Baby Daydresses and the design is included in my article. I like to add a touch of color by threading four strands of floss through entredeux.  Charlotte with her Mama :) I was in Wales visiting her family last Christmas!  In this photo where I am holding her, she is wearing a Smocked Bishop that I made her Mama 27 years ago.  The smocking plate is Silent Mice.

Old Things Found!!

This is an Embroidered Quilt Block I made many, many years ago. I bought a set of 12 in 1970 and embroidered 7 of them. I had NO IDEA what I was doing.  But apparently I planned to finish them because I kept them all these years. I was looking for my box of Interfacing and had to pull all this out of my closet before I found the box with the Blocks (long before I found the interfacing). The block even has dots to follow for Hand Quilting. These are the ones that have been waiting 52 years to be finished. I have to say, I am impressed with the neat back, all things considere ..read more
