What Elise Wore: Her Easter Dress

Growing up, our Mom made all of our special occasion clothes. Back then I was sure it was either to stretch her single parent budget or because she took special joy in dorking my brother and I out in matchy matchy outfits. But after finishing a few dresses for Elise lately, including her Easter dress, I think that I may have stumbled on to the real reason...there is nothing like sending your little one out the door knowing that they are literally wrapped in your love. I sure do love that little girl (and my Mom for all of those outfits, too!).

Elise looks adorable in her Easter dress. How awesome that you take the time and care to sew her clothing. My mom did that a bit for us as kids. I really wish she'd teach me how to sew! SO cute!!!!
