I had three coordinating fabrics and wanted to mix up the colors between the girls. The color of the hat brim matches the spine of the purse which matches the shorts and pockets. I need the Cuties help to make purse tags so the girls will be able to tell their purses apart more easily. See question in Community.

These are adorable, the girls will look so cute, you must post their picture, when they are in them.
Sorry, I can't help on the name tags, but I am sure someone will help you. I am able to adjust my size, in my format (pcs) so maybe the one that you mentioned was close, can be made a little smaller.

oldandgrey suggested just using a design so they can tell their purses apart. I like that idea. The tags I had made were crowded with name and design.

Becky - they look so sweet here together and I know when Sarah, Hannah and Cora get their dresses on they will have to pose for a picture for Grammy and then she will share it with us - right? Hehehe! I see you have decided to do something different for the purses - so the girls can tell them apart - hehehe! You will have to show those, too!

I guess it's too late now, but I would have just put an initial in the middle of each star, or make the luggage tag with an initial and hang from purse strap with ribbon. What pattern did you use for the dresses? So cute!!!

I will look up the pattern number at home. Initial in the star...hmmm great idea. I didn't think about tags until after they were complete. I laid the different purses with each dress and then moved them around until I had the best combination. Excited to try the ideas I have been given.
by workbecky 13 Aug 2008
Kay, the dresses are Simplicity 5540 (still active) and the purse is from Simplicity 5639 (out of print)

Thank you. The hat was part of the dress pattern and I just thought I would add the purses because the two youngest are really into purses.

How cute! The girls will love them. Think the girls will be able to know their purse by the color of the star.

Thank you. That is true if they remember their star matches their dress.

Thank you. I am so glad my daugher has 3 little girls because I do have so much fun sewing for them. I sewed a little for my son (now 20) but not as much as for the girls and now granddaughters.

This is adorable. I love the way you mixed the fabrics up but they are still the same in design. The girls will be so cute (as if they aren't already, right?)
