I have been cleaning out my daughters cupboard -- a never ending task at the rate she's been growing -- and thinking about what to do with my O+S handmades. I'm not sentimental -- a picture or two is enough for me -- so I've always given them away. But, and I know this sounds awful, I don't think they've been appreciated and, in some cases, have not been worn again. So I thought I would post them here. I know you all sew and do it because you enjoy the process but sometimes it might be nice to get something already made, right? I'm happy to send things on if the recipient contributes to the cost of the postage (I'm in Canada so it can sometimes be a bit pricey to ship things).
Here's what I've got so far. Send me a message if you are interested:
1. Plaid Ice Cream Blouse, size 8 with an extra 2 inches added to the length. Never worn. Not even once. Apparently my girls don't like plaid!

2. Hope Valley Family Reunion Dress with Fairy Tale Sleeves, size 4 with an extra 4 inches of length
My daughter did wear this quite a bit but it stood up very well. I love this dress and would love for someone else to get some use out of it :)

3. Ombre Seashore Dress, size 6 with two inches added to the body and one inch added to the bottom
This was worn by both my girls but didn't fit either for very long so is still in good shape

4. Princess Class Picnic Dress, I *think* it's size 4 but I can't be positive.
Miss Thing picked the fabric herself and wore it for about a month straight and then never again!

5. Dotty Ombre Fairy Tale Dress, size 6 with a size 8 length in the bodice
This was worn a lot by both girls but has stood up fairly well. I never did get around to fixing the hem so it's as it looks in this picture :)
