That's a perfectly adorable smock for a perfectly adorable girl. Your daughter is so beautiful!

This garden smock is adorable...everything about it, but I especially like the eyelet trim. Your sweet garden helper looks adorable too! Maybe you could find a gardening friend or neighbor who would help you dig up the roses in exchange for getting to keep them? Course if they were neighbors, I guess they have deer dropping by for dessert too!

me: actually most of my neighbors have very tall and electrified fences around their yards. i'd rather adjust my "offerings" than resort to creating a compound and shutting the wildlife out. i'm sure i can find a few friends in town though that might like the roses, that way i can still visit them!

Mrs.Staggs

LOL! In the time it took me to write my comment Isabelle posted her remarks....both really are adorable Vicki!

Suzanne

The smock is adorable. Do you have a pattern? I have three daughters and would love to make smocks for them. thank you

me: yes, it's made from a really old pattern from 1972; simplicity #5272.

Oh that smock is wonderful! I wouldn't want it ever to get dirty! Maybe I would use it just as a 'lets go around and see how things are growing' type of smock, haha.

Happy Mother's Day freind!! xo.

Sweet little smock! I was just looking around for an appropriate pattern to make myself a gardening smock of some sort ..in a nice floral. I know what I am looking for..now to find it.
Happy Mother's Day, ~vicki!

Adorable photos (that watering can looks almost big enough for her to climb in - ala' Peter Rabbit!). What a pretty garden smock.
Remember the book/movie/tv show "Please don't eat the daisies"? That's what your deer tale made me think of - Maybe you could put up a sign "Please don't eat the roses!" :>)
Have a happy Mother's Day, Vicki!

This little life of yours is just like a picture book...

Meg

That's a beautiful smock, probably the prettiest of all I have seen around the blogs lately - perfect for a wee girl. I might be a copycat and sew a couple for my own girls.

Angela

This is so precious, did you use a pattern? And shes a doll too!

Clarice

I love your smock, very spring like. Clarice

Blair

I would also love to know specific on any pattern you used (or not). That smock is darling, so is your model, I love her blue crocs, my daughter has purple ones she wore all last summer.

Linda

Very pretty. Pink gingham is one of my most favorite kinds of fabric.
