Little Summer Dresses and matching Purses
Hi, my name is Monica. I'm a freelance artist and designer who works in Pen & Ink and watercolor. I also design fun things with fabric using fancy stitching.
Mini Bible theme quiet book
This busy book is focused more on the simple side of activity for each page. Everything movable is attached by a ribbon so pieces cannot be lost. Joseph's coat of many colors is a 'snap on', the baby Jesus in a manager, is a piece fitting into a pocket. Daniel in the lion's den has a movable lion, the ark for Noah is also movable fitting into the waves in various places. The empty tomb and three crosses, is my own design, and has a movable stone revealing the empty grave clothes. One thing I learned watching my little granddaughters use this book is the wiggly eyes are not very desirable because some children really want to pick them off. Even though I attached them with hot glue. I have taken to embroidering the eyes on instead. I did slide a lightweight piece of cardboard in-between the pages to give a harder 'book feel' to this soft book.

Little Easter Dresses
I used patterns from the Australian Smocking and Embroidery Magazines Issues 89 and 87 for these little Easter dresses. They are made from linen look poly/cotton blend and 100% poly. The smallest dress has bullion roses sewn on the buttons - another idea from the magazines. I really love the ideas and full size patterns in the AS&E.
English Smocking - Summer Bishops

Little girls look so sweet fin these for a casual dressy look.
