Sewing: Better than Vintage

What's better than vintage? Handmade just for you of course! My mom made me these gingham dresses when I was a kid.

I wish I could pretend that I made them myself but I don't have that kind of skill.

When I out grew the first one, my mom made me the second. I wore the second one when I was in kindergarten.

The details are amazing. My mom did all the embroidery herself. I love the puppy dress. I had a serious dog obsession when I was a little kid.

The smaller dress has little buttons all down the back. I think they're painted ceramic. They're definitely not plastic. The larger dress had cute little yellow bows on the sleeves but only one is left. I love these dresses. I'm home at my Parents' house where the dresses live so I thought I'd share them with you.
