the little blue dresses


These gorgeous little Dutch girl dresses have been stored in Mums attic for the past 20 years. They were sewn by Oma for my sister and I when we were little girls. Recently with the birth of Mum’s first granddaughter, our little Hannah, she cleaned out her attic and passed on bags and bags of children’s clothes she has been keeping all these years for her future grandchildren. The moment I saw them again so many childhood memories came back to me. Memories of our Oma and all the beautiful things she knitted, sewed, and created for us as children. They, and she is the inspiration for creating this blog.
