little girls in dresses

August 8, 2008

DSCN0005 Let's just say the dresses were well received.  They are totally thrilled with them and it makes me so pleased.  This morning, before presenting them, I made each one a matching hair accessory – a fabric yo-yo with a fabric covered button as the center, sewn to a ponytail holder.  The combination of a new dress, in fabric of her own choosing, with matching hair tie, just about made Roxanne speechless.  A rare occurrence indeed.  And even prompted the above photo, an ever so rare (maybe twice in four years?) hug for her sister.
