  1. Well, we are a smocky lot of Sasha mommas! We have more here, so perhaps I do go over-board a little too much for these dresses, especially when you realize how few girly shoes we own to go with them. In my view, this classic look is one of the best for little girls, human or Sasha, when they are going somewhere special.

    I was excited to see a boy with such a lovely top too. My lads are not looking quite so nervous now that they see masculine designs are possible.

    Is dear Hattie still smocked? Myfanwy noticed Tomos, the Gregor next door, giving her covert glances and seems to be warming to the idea of being a girl as a result. Coulld she be a convert or would Hattie view that as going over to the enemy?!

    1. I think there are a lot of smock loving Momma's out there!! :) and I agree they look good on all little girls human and doll.
      Yes Hattie is still smocked ! and I am going to try and at a few more photo's!! Well Hattie likes dress especially the Helena BC kind, so I don't think she'd think ill of Myfanwy not unless she starts giggle when she see Tomos!!

  2. I am really enjoying the smocked outfits Dee!!! I did not say dresses because of Finn :). Both Finn and Kendal are wearing smocked creations by Millie Dingham. Ellen 's photos are so wonderful and I love looking at her beautiful Sashas. Your last photo is beautiful and I love those soft pastel colors on your girls. Really just a great post with each photo bringing a special delight :) xxxx

  3. Oh my goodness, what BEAUTIFUL photos of these lovely girls (and boys!) in their smocked outfits. I love smocking and have had a couple of attempts at it, but none in Sasha size. I would like to have the time to have another go at it but it'll have to wait for now!! I do love seeing all these other lovely outfits though, they're really gorgeous and I can hardly wait for the second installment of the smocking photos.
    Big hugs Sharon xxx

  5. Hi Dee...Internet has been down today. The post was worth the wait. Beautiful kids, beautiful clothes. Amazing, just amazing! All of the clothing is different and unique in its own way. Have never seen such a range of smocked clothing. All of the smocking has such attention to detail. So well presented. Think that I will be taking another look. Many thanks...Carol

  6. Well Dee,

    You have started something here with these smocked dresses! I have really enjoyed seeing the wonderful variety of smocked dresses on your blog. It is amazing how varied and exquisite they all are. The imagination and creativity of each smocking artist leaves me in awe. Is it any wonder that we love these dresses. I think they bring out the beauty of a doll that might not be noticed otherwise.
