Oh that pout is precious! Pretty dress too!
oh, my, that dress is GREAT! I love the pouty face, too. adorable.
adorable dress, please save that photo for her wedding…
So much fun! She doesn’t look too happy about it though. Is she not a fan of ruffles or just not a fan of cameras?
So Katie’s not a fan of ruffles, huh?
Oh…it’s all just too, too cute! Happy Valentine’s Day!
K’s face is just a picture! I love the dress. 18 ruffles is a true valentine’s for anyone.
so funny. i think your katie needs to meet my kate.
The funny thing is she loves the dress, the crabby face is because it is cold here and she has to wear a shirt under it.
I love the ruffles and the apron front - wonderful! And the crabby face is great as well.
Love the face…
Cool dress too!
That dress is too cute and I am amazed that you can sew by simply copying a picture.
The pout is cute too, my girls never behave for a professional photographer either.
This dress is ADORABLE! Oh to have a little girl to get to dress up. Your photos are beautiful. What a cute little model.
