Can't We Go Swimming Yet?
This is one of the heirloom, one-of-a-kind dresses that I make. I do all of the smocking by hand and then hand-embroider a little scene over the smocking. Each scene is created like a little vignette, intended to spark the imagination of the little girl wearing it, encouraging thought about what could be taking place in that particular scene. This particular dress was a custom order. The request was for something similar to another dress that I had made titled 'To the Swimming Hole". Since I don't two dresses exactly the same, this is an example of one that is similar in design but not the same, as another dress in my collection.
