A Toddler's Tailored Smock


I pulled this wonderful woven plaid from my fabric archives. I believe it was my mother's pleated skirt in 1956, a big year for pleated skirts for her (junior high). Several of them have made their way into my fabric stash and I can't explain the profound satisfaction I get from making them into something new and usable.

Hence this smock! You all know how wonderful it is to turn plaid on the bias, so I'll just point out its little bias bound edges and leave the rest to your delicate sensibilities . . .

Remember that all proceeds go to Kimmie's adoption when you spend in the shop, until further notice!
