I just wanted to do something nautical on a bathing suit. Traditional and classic. I hope you all love it.

My daughter is into animals right now. We are working on her speech and animal noises are a way to do her therapies. I very much wanted to do another biblical smocked item and so Noah's ark was an easy choice. It is called "The Promise" because after the flood God promised Noah to never flood the entire earth again.
Some places do giveaways or drawings as a way to thank their clients. I decided that I wanted to do something that was meaniful and could last a lifetime. I created this piece for a mommy who loves Damask and very much wanted a bloomer set. A way I could honor her was to not only make it but to name it after her beautiful and girly daughter. That is why this is called "The Alexis".

Paradise
Amy is a mom of 4 girls and lives in Hawaii. She has supported me on my venture since I sold my first smocked item. One week she bought 9 bishops from me. In efforts to say thank you I decided to do a smocked garment with her family in mind. Later I will reveal this creation to you all. I hope she approves.
Much Smock Love,

"Anchors Away"
My granddad was in the Navy. (He recently passed) My husband's granddad and father were in the Navy. Hence my daughter's name, Sailor. So I wanted to create something that would represent all of them. I wanted to something classic and simple. I think I achieved that with this bubble I created. The Anchor reminds me more than just of my daughter, some say the Anchor means Hope others say Faith. Either way I see the Cross and I see my family when I look at this Anchor.
Much Smock Love,

"Lets Go Fly a Kite"
One windy day when we were sitting around as a family I said to my husband "We should go fly kites today". I quickly retracted my statement because I could not think of what my daughter would wear to capture this first time daddy and daughter moment. So...as any normal mom would do, I decided right then I needed to make a kite outfit.
However, I wanted it to be more than just about kites. I wanted it to open a conversation with our children about who made the wind. So I inserted crosses into the center of the kites to remind us to take each moment to share the Creator with our children. Below is the moment I envisioned when I created this item.
Much Smock Love,
Faith
