I used the Mill Farm Girls' Gown pattern, but I changed it a bunch, to make it more like the original gown I was trying to copy.<br /><br />For the cap, I use the little girl's cap from Kannick's corner, and, again, changed it, quite a lot, to make the cap look like the one in the painting I was copying.Colleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13029537644437898609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3694438506640844136.post-36455226748405783772011-04-07T14:04:51.399-04:002011-04-07T14:04:51.399-04:00'Kids are camera bait' -- I have a daught...'Kids are camera bait' -- I have a daughter (4 years old) that looks to be around same age and oh that is so true!

I always appreciate your common sense approach, knowledge, humor and open mindedness there.)iciclehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14230727585835110566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3694438506640844136.post-11835636107306297962010-11-10T08:37:26.959-05:002010-11-10T08:37:26.959-05:00She looks wonderful!
