Hello Friends, I love stitching before the sun comes up in the morning. I enjoy the quietness. I finished smocking Miss Baby’s windowpane bishop this morning at about 5am.
I am really loving the scalloped “windowpanes.” In case you are wondering, the smocking plate I used and modified is called “Windowpane Bishop” by The Children’s Corner, Inc.
I have a rather special purpose for this bishop. I will share with you once everything falls in place.
Thanks for stopping by. I have got to get a few things done before mid-week is upon us.
Hugs to you all!

Beautiful work!!!
Have a great day.
Always, Queenie
That is absolutely beautiful. You must have the patience of a Saint. I hope you are going to keep all these lovely dresses so your daughter can appreciate them when she is older. Or will the lovely fabrics end up in quilts?
So very lovely!!!
Wow! How long does that take?!
Oh this looks beautiful! You’re so inspiring!
Gorgeous!
Beautiful, Wendy! What great family heirlooms they will become.
Awh, it’s absolutely beautiful! I remember making pretties before my daughter grew up…
Your work is stunning (as always). You have such a talent! This will become an heirloom for sure.
Simply Beautiful! What a lovely project!
That is lovely!
So sweet. Looking forward to hear it’s special purpose…
Absolutely stunning! Awesome! Beautiful!
It’s beautiful.
You do such lovely smocking!
Beautiful! I was looking forward to seeing the completed smocking–now awaiting the completed piece. It is always a treat to see your handwork.
Ah, and that little “early birdie” is much too busy for worm hunting!! LOL!
Beautiful Wendy!!!
Brings back my stocking days when I was pregnant and my girls were little.💜

How beautiful, Miss Baby will be adorable in it! Another heirloom from Mommy’s needle ~
:-}pokey
Beautiful Wendy! I smocked a few tops when my daughter was little and thoroughly enjoyed it. I also knitted a dress for her with mock smocking on the bodice. She grew out of it too too fast. Time flies as we all know!
Wendy, no matter what you do it turns out beautifully! Even your pleats are perfect. 1st day of school dress?
Lovely smocking. I have never tried getting up before the sun to sew! The days here are already getting shorter…..sunset 7:59 :(
This smocking plate is perfect for the fabric! I’m so glad you put the pleated fabrics to use. Makes me really happy, and I know Miss G will look adorable in it. Very well done!
LOVE THIS VERY MUCH!
Looks great Wendy! I have always loved the look of smocking, but it looks like it takes soooooo much time LOL, and like you have LOADS of time, right?! Hugs!
That is just amazing, Wendy. You do such a beautiful job with your smocking.
