Before we left, I made a quick summer's dress for Norah. The smocked dress Heather Ross presented at Martha Stewart's show a few years ago is simple, easy, and always beautiful. The fabric I used is some cheap broderie anglaise.
The fun thing about this dress is that you can vary endlessly with the straps. I made mine a little different from the original.





Cute dress, cute girl!! I'm following here now from your old blog..
