McCalls M4547

Josie's bonnet is done! We happened to be at the library yesterday and I was looking through some art books in which I rediscovered vintage Holly Hobbie. There was a watercolor of a girl in a red bonnet that had a similar print as Josie's. I couldn't find that particular picture online but the one above will help you remember what a vintage Holly Hobbie print looks like.
It looks like a vintage Holly Hobbie!
McCalls M4547 is not a Holly Hobbie pattern (just wanted to be sure you understood). It is a colonial costume pattern.


I need to get a couple pictures of Georgia's up here too.

I really LOVE this bonnet Jenny.. the red looks wonderful on her! Sarah used to wear one, but grew out of it. It was pink and mom bought it from a mennonite family at the farmers market in watertown the summer after Sarah was born, so she wore it quite a while. (I think she has it on a dolly now!)

I love the bonnet and Ava loves hers too. I emailed Julie about that horse and she has been sold:(
