Two Blue Ready to Smock Tops


These two tops are from a new pattern that my fellow smocking addict down in Louisiana let me borrow. The blue check one is size 18 mos and the solid one is size 24 month (largest size in the pattern). They are meant to be worn with bloomers. This pattern pretty much uses the entire width of the 45 inch wide fabric on the front of this top so it is very full and has a pretty look to it. I am liking the idea of making smocked tops instead of only making smocked dresses -- you can wear them with different bottoms to really change the look! These both are lined with the same fabric as the top, and they both have button closures all the way down the back. Didn't they turn out really pretty?
