New ITH Easter Bodice and Dresses for my G-Nieces...I just love doing these...Size 8 down to Size 1...Coordinating design on the front and back of the bodice...and I think the Turquoise just screams Spring...I think the girls will just love twirling in these...

These are adorable! Do you do the embroidery on the fabric before you cut it out? or do you have the sizes digitized into the machine for the dresses and it takes care of all that? I'm sure you are their favorite auntie.

Thank you all for your kind words...to answer Leaha's question...these are digitized each to be done by specific size and totally in the hoop...basically all I need to do after the bodice is taken out of the hoop is add the skirts to the bodice...they are great fun to do!

Thank you, Keitha...the hearts and satin ball stitching are digitized as part of the bodice embroidery...the bodice is embroidered, and totally finished in the hoop, including the shoulder ties and the bodice lining...when the bodice is all finished in the hoop, all I need to do is add the skirt..
by keitha 28 Mar 2015
My, you are one clever lady.
I wondered how you got the hearts and balls so uniform.
Kudos to you!

Lovely!! Sonja Showalter has some similar bodices...no embroidery on them but I'm sure you could add anything you want. Wish I had young ones to sew something like this for!! Thanks for sharing.
