Smocking With Pink and Gray

 #142
 
Choosing  floss colors for smocking on pink fabric can be a bit tricky. I often use white along with other shades of pink, but for this project I wanted something a bit different.  Pink and gray are a popular color combination for clothing and home decorating, so why not for smocking?  DMC #415 gray and #604 pink looks nice on the pink Imperial Broadcloth fabric without being too bold or too pale.


The bishop bubble was made using pattern #142 and the smocking design is included in the pattern.  Smocked hearts, just right for Valentine's Day!

    Very sweet! I need to order your new bubble pattern. I haven't made a button front bubble...maybe ever! But I love them! Very pretty combination!

    I have a new granddaughter on the way. I might need to make this for her for this summer. I have always loved the combination of pink and grey. In fact the handkerchief in my pocket today is a pink and grey floral.

    I love it! Does this pattern have snaps at the crotch? I find it's easier to change a diaper when there are snaps at the crotch. Thanks!
