My friend has completed Shoestring's winter outfit.

Pics follow.





The "dress" didn't turn out exactly like we thought it would due to my fabric choice......so we're going to make it a shirt and I'm going to attempt a circle skirt so that I can wear my crinoline with my outfit.

My smock is actually a really loud lime green but my 7 year old isn't great with my camera. It turned out exactly like I wanted it. The patches on the bottom represent the 7 days of creation.

Day 1 (soccer ball) light from the darkness
Day 2 (airplane) created the heavens and sky
Day 3 (dump truck and flower) seperated the dry land from the waters, created plants
Day 4 (moon and stars) created the moon, and sun and stars
Day 5 (fish) created birds and sea creatures
Day 6 (cat) created animals and humans
Day 7 (vacation) took a break!

I just got them about a hour ago so I still have to add all my buttons and "flair" as my husband calls it.

What do y'all think?

I like both the colorfulness and the symbolism.

I love lime green. Neat idea with the patches

It's pretty plain I'm going to add accessories but I'm unsure of what would work well. I am buying a skirt to go with it, I have a new crinoline coming so the skirt will puff. Do you guys have any ideas of what to add?
