Blessing Dress

I wish these pictures did justice to just how beautiful Caroline's blessing dress is.  My sweet mom made this dress for her and it has so much meaning. It is made partially with dupione silk that was also used for my sisters wedding dress.  The stitching on the back of the dress of the flower was my late sister, Heather's doodle.  The dress had a slip made with a large, delicate C hand embroidered on the chest. And the bag was hand embroidered with the details of the blessing. I am so lucky to have such a talented mama!

Cloud nine.

I have been seeing cloud pillows all over Pinterest lately and think they are the cutest darn things ever.  Today I busted out my new sewing machine my mama got me and some purple, fabric scraps.  It isn't perfect, but I think it would be so fun to have a collection of cloud pillows.  Possibly suspended from the ceiling.
