Our 3rd birthday!!

It is our 3rd birthday on Etsy on 23rd June, so to celebrate, we are giving away a FREE GIFT with all orders for the next 2 weeks!!

Our liberty dresses continue to be a 'best seller', and this year, we have brought in a  new line of matching dress and pants sets. A lovely customer from the U.S.A requested 3 'special order' matching sets, so we decided to extend our range within our shop. All our newly made baby dresses up to a year old now have matching knickers. We have recently sold 2 more matching sets.  Here are some examples for you to see:

I've just made another matching set for a 3 - 6 month old baby, which will be listed soon!

Dolly mixtures tabard and bridesmaids bags!

Summer has arrived, and with it some lovely flowers in the garden. However, we are still busy sewing, and here is our next tabard apron as promised!

This one is made from a lovely vintage fabric called 'Dolly Mixtures' dating from the 1970s, and found in an antique centre, completely unused! The cheery yellow binding and useful pocket make it ideal for a toddler age 1 year to 18 months. The elastic side fastenings make for easy dressing, and allow plenty of room for growth!

We've also just expanded our dolly bags with some that are ideal for little bridesmaids. Take a look!



Another tabard apron!

Here is another tabard apron to add to our new collection. This one is to suit a 2 year old little girl. The colours are bright and cheerful, and would be ideal to wear over a special dress to keep it clean.

A new line for daisyfleur!!

 

AAKAROA, SOUTH ISLAND, NEW ZEALAND

Apologies for the long delay in updating this blog, but we have been away from home visiting brothers who live in Canada and New Zealand, and travelling around New Zealand ourselves. It was a fantastic holiday!! Above is the view from a holiday cottage we stayed in at Akaroa, on the Banks Peninsula. What a wonderful view!!

Anyway, today I just want to introduce you to a new line for daisyfleur. We have started to sew little tabard aprons for toddlers, and this is the first one that is for sale on etsy. We plan to expand the range to include little girls up to the age of 4, and make them in a variety of fabrics and patterns.

This is the first tabard, to suit a toddler aged 1 year to 18 months.Take a look at the detail on the above link to our shop in etsy!

Watch this space for more tabards in the weeks to come!

Thoughts of Autumn!!

My local weather man announced that today was officially the first day of autumn, so I thought it was time to start featuring some 'autumn' or 'fall' dresses. Here are some of our favourites:-

A lovely soft babycord fabric. Isn't the pattern pretty? It is a liberty design known as 'Sarah's Secret Garden'.

This lovely liberty dress is another 6 month size - we think this is very seasonal in its colour mix.

This lovely liberty pinafore dress is ideal for the time of year, as it can be worn with a short sleeved tee on a warmer day, or a long sleeved one if the weather is cooler. This is a 1 year old size.

Another of our popular babycord jumpers - this one fits a 3 year old little girl.

By the way - our weather man went on to say that we are expecting an Indian summer half way through next week, with high summer temperatures!!

We have a new shop banner and avatar!!

Hello

I would just like to share with you our new shop banner from our etsy shop, and also our new avatar which now appears on this blog. We would like to extend a special thank you to Nevena of Photosprint, who also has a shop on etsy. Anyone who has ever created a banner for an on-line shop will know that it usually requires lots of thought and amendments, so thank you again  Nevena for your help and patience! Nevena managed to incorporate our new 'little girl holding a marguerite image', all drawn by my husband (Jenny's Dad, of course!). We also included some lovely liberty fabric, as we use liberty so much in our dresses. We are very pleased with the end result!
