FO Friday: Little sister "dress" and Strawberry cuteness

It's finished! and I love it! I can see me making more of these. It's a super easy pattern and it's so cute!

I recycled some buttons from a pair of trousers that no longer fit Anara (My youngest)

It's a perfect fit and I think the colour really suits her
Little Sister Dress

Excuse her hair. I was just too excited to wait until after brushing it. Not that it looks much better now that it's done.
Little Sister Dress

Yarn: Sublime Extra Fine Merino wool

I've also been making a few bits and bats for Anara's Birthday "Party" I say "Party" because there will be 4 children present (including my daughter) so it's really more of a playdate with a theme. And the theme is Strawberries.

These I'm making for a Strawberry hunt. I need to make at least one more.

Pattern: Strawberry

I've also made my eldest daughter, Rheya, a tooth fairy pillow. She was unfortunately enough to have to have a tooth pulled this week...she was an absolute star though and I'm very proud of her.

I made this is a bit of a rush so it's not my best work, but it did the job.

    What a clever tooth fairly pillow! I bet that took a bit of the sting out of having to have a tooth pulled!
