I have a new hobby--it is smocking, as in smocking little dresses for Mara Kate. Back in March when I was in Arkansas visiting my aunt and uncle my aunt got me started on learning this new skill and I LOVE it. It is really easier than it looks and it is something I can do and have a beautiful finished product, something I can dress Mara Kate in for church or other special occasions. My first project was a ginham fabric with the smocking in all white and now I am working on a floral print fabric with pink smocking. For those of you who are interested, here are some pictures of the raw project as it looks right now. I will post pictures of the dress once it is all sewn together and ready to be worn.
