Smocked Sundress with matching bloomers


I finished this cute sundress with matching bloomers tonight. I made it with a white cotton printed with pink, green, yellow, and blue pastel polka dots. I smocked it in a geometric pattern in pale pink. Both the front and the back of the dress are smocked and it ties at the shoulders. The pattern came from an issue of Australian Smocking and Embroidery (AS&E). This is a wonderful magazine with many free patterns in each issue.
We are making plans for the weekend. Matty's birthday is next Wednesday, May 28th. We plan to celebrate with a cookout on Sunday. Matt, Dan, and Bjarne are playing golf in the morning and we will grill out burgers and dogs in the evening. Molly is bringing the dessert.
