Remember when I mentioned blogging has filled my life with people I hope never to lose contact with?
One of those people just sent Miss Ky a package...
My long-lost separated-at-birth sister can sew! She can smock! Which makes me wonder if we should have our dna tested since I absolutely can do neither, and she's generous.
Flea (the lady behind Fred and Bessie) felt bad that my poor daughter is being reared in a home where she would never have a handcrafted dress and made this just for her.
I have a very happy little girl.
See this bag of pears?
She decided she wanted one, so I told her she has to take the dress off (it's intended for her as a size three, she was only trying it on for a picture), but she refused saying, "No.... pretty".
I think she likes it Flea! Thank you!

It is almost as pretty as Miss Ky.
Rock on Flea! That's great. I called her out the other day & she totally missed it, too. I love the smocking. Gorgeous.
Just beautiful. Both the dress and the brown eyed beauty wearing it.
How adorable is that??? She is amazing, our Miss Flea!
She's right. Pretty.
wow! if I met someone that's so nice to my kids, I'll 'stay' with her
'till death shall we part'!
she has a huge heart!
She makes it pretty. :) I think I'd have gone for the pears, tho. Heh. Mostly because the dress wouldn't fit me. I know. I tried.
You know, it wasn't just because you finally have a little girl and can't sew. It's because you live in FREAKIN' ENGLAND and have a little girl and can't sew. Isn't there a rule there that says all little girls must wear a smocked dress at least once in their lives? I think there must be. I'm going to look it up.
Mental P, you're next!
It's very cute. And its purple!!!
Adorable. Any news of your missing friend?
That adorable little girl cannot possibly be the source of all that chaos you ascribe to her. She is just too precious!
What a sweet girl and how awesome of Flea to send such an amazing gift!
Ahhhhhh! Lovely dress, beautiful little girl.
I used to know how to smock, maybe it will come back again...so Laura Ashley,so...English rose.
Hey J - does the neck fit properly? I noticed that the sleeves puddle around her wrists just right. And if the neck fits properly, maybe you could pick up some Stitch Witchery and just press the hem up to the length you want it?
that is adorable!!! how much cuter can a little girl get?!
xo
very cute! and how thoughtful of miss flea. :)
that brings back many a memory of home-made dresses from my mom (and matching ones at that for my sis and I)
How very nice of Flea!!! Very pretty dress.
Hey! I'm an Esme, too! Who was she again? I can't rememeber.
Uh, gorgeous, and yet it underlines that fact that I can do nothing like this. ug.
AAAAAAAAAWWWWWWW Maaaaammmmmmaaaaaa let the little girl wear it RIGHT NOW!!! It's adorable!!!
I've saved my favorite bloggy sites to read and savor this day as I pray for peace and joy as America selects the next White House dweller. Thanks for providing something so cute and diverting to look at. Miss Ky is ADORABLE--PRECIOUS--WONDERFUL . . . (and so is FLEA!!!)
She is an absolute DOLL!! What a sweet Gift..Hope you are having a great day!!
Miss Ky is lovely and so is the dress. Do you think she might be a model when she goes up?
How very sweet! I love smocking.
Awww how adorable is she (and the dress). Yay for a generous and crafty sister!
That is so sweet of flea! It's darling.
Sweet, sweet. Both the dress and the cute little one wearing it. Oh yeah, and Flea too!! Nice job Flea!!
That is awesome. It keeps the girls away from pears? Behold the power of the pretty dress.
