Judy Day’s two granddaughters and two granddolls<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

While most of us are likely busy stitching Christmas outfits or gifts, I thought you would enjoy seeing one of Judy Day’s outfits from a Christmas past.<\/p>\n

My dear friend Judy Day made these for her two granddaughters a few years ago, along with matching dresses for their American Girls dolls.\u00c2\u00a0 And of course, Judy ALWAYS makes hair bows for girls and dolls. How cute are\u00c2\u00a0 these little Christmas darlings?<\/p>\n

A few years ago, Judy attended\u00c2\u00a0the Martha Pullen’s school when I was teaching.\u00c2\u00a0 We\u00c2\u00a0 both spotted a dress like these made by master teacher Lezette Thomason.\u00c2\u00a0 Judy proclaimed right then and there that she would be making similar dresses for Courtney and Kennedy that next Christmas.\u00c2\u00a0 And she did.<\/p>\n

Judy started with the jumper pattern in Martha’s Favorite Applique’s by Martha Pullen.\u00c2\u00a0 She lengthened it, because the girls’ mothers like the longer, mid-calf length.\u00c2\u00a0 Then she drafted a simple Christmas tree for the applique’.<\/p>\n

The jumpers and trees are both featherwale corderoy.\u00c2\u00a0 The trees are decorated with buttons.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 And the girls themselves are cute as a button.<\/p>\n

Thanks, Judy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
