Esther was such a stinker this day… or maybe Mama was the stinker. Anyway, here’s an illusion of peace for the sake of fashion.
The dress was made for her when she was a baby. I have to say, though the proportions are a little off, it still works as a tunic two years later. I’m trying to gear my designs more and more this way – if you are going to pay boutique prices for a kids’ garment, wouldn’t you want to have it around for more than a few months? Maybe if I had placed the waist a little lower, it would look a little more believable as a 2T garment.

Should I be worried?

Do you remember…?

Here’s a relic from the little bird days, my old parent brand name that I wasn’t sold on – one of the few SOFT GOODS garments that didn’t sell. Let me know if you have a home for it! It is a 6 mo size that could also probably fit a 3 month old, and convert to a mini or a tunic for up to 18 mo, if your gal is trim.

SOFT GOODS is a collection of dressy fashions for baby made of recycled/salvaged vintage wovens. Look for more to come, now that Michael is out of his first year. Woo Woo!
