I knitted a couple of these vests last year and found them fun and quick to make so I decided to knit Nola one this past week in a lovely mottled, blue aran. It is scottish lambswool and soft as a cloud.
A pair of my linen trousers were beginning to wear at the leg so I refashioned them for Nola by tracing round a pair of her jeans and leaving a generous seam allowance. There are so many tutorials for this online. Here is one I just found.

She is just adorable!
ReplyDeleteAnd how talented you are to take a pair of your pants and resize them, wow!
I am going to attempt to sew myself a frock, fingers crossed since sewing is
not a skill I was blessed with.
Oh my, she is just adorable! And she looks beautiful in her thoughtfully made with love clothes :)
ReplyDeleteYour pictures here are lovely. How wonderful that you were able to make a pair of pants for your daughter out of your own. She looks so sweet modeling the things you have made. :^)
ReplyDeleteGreat outfit. Your attention to detail is terrific. I love the added touch of the lace trim on the bottom of the peasant blouse...just peeking out past the vest. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely outfit and such artistic photos!
ReplyDeleteOh what a sweet outfit! She looks absolutely adorable - and comfy too!
ReplyDeleteOh, that's just beautiful. The entire outfit and the photos!
ReplyDeleteThe whole outfit is just gorgeous! Love it. You are so clever. :-)
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness! What a darling outfit! I am pinning several of those links on pinterest. I dream of sewing more for my girls but it's depending a little on my decluttering journey the next month so I can dig my sewing desk out from clutter! Ha! I love that vest, it's really cute.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous outfit. I love all of it.
