Australian Smocking Magazine Pattern - Toffee Apple
This pattern was in Australian Smocking & Embroidery, Issue 81. It's super cute and super easy. The pattern needed to be altered a little. They used facing, and I wanted it lined, and they had actual shoulder straps, and I wanted ribbon. Also, they used rick rack instead of the piping, which is REALLY cute, but I couldn't find rick rack that matched, so I was forced to make piping. I also added a machine embroidered accent to the hem of the capris.

Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.
Thanks, nana! I didn't know you were a smocker! I'd love to see you get back into it. Let me know if you're interested and I'll send you some stuff! I know the grandkids would love to have their "nonni" make something for them!!
