In Stitches

There's been quite a lot of stitching going on. Loads of color, ruffles, and sparkle. 

First, A tiny size 12 month top and bloomers that has all the colors you need. 

And full of ruffles and bows. 

I purchased two pink baby swim suits (size 12 months and 3t) and embellished them with ruffles and sparkle. 

Lace ruffles adorn the top and around the back bottom of this baby sized one. Just yards and yards of lace gathered to make 3 ruffle tiers. 

Hair band/bow, anklet bows, and back center bow give it all the bow power you need. 

And why not add a little sparkle across the front.

Really super easy and quick after I dreamed up a design and ordered the sparkle swirls iron-on rhinestone applique and lace online and searched for the swimsuits at a local walmart. 

    

The size 3t was a little more involved. 

Same swimsuit, but in a size 3t. I cut it in half to make a tank-ini. Yes, it was a little scary to cut it into 2 pieces. I wasn't quite sure what the results would be. But, sometimes you have to just go for it. 

 

I purchased blue and pink fabric to make the ruffles. And bought the pink gem star stones to embellish the outfit. And made the cute fabric stars for dimension.

So cute with all the ruffles, frills, and sparkle.
