Hi, thanks for visiting me today at my place--so nice to meet you! You have a great blog, and I love the variety of things you delve into. Your smocking is beautiful!! I've not done smocking in years, but love to sew. Thanks for the links to more smocking. Happy Day :o)

Thanks for stopping by! That's actually Marie Grace's smocking. Mine's still in the works. I do hope to have a picture of my first sample of smocking up shortly. Soon as I finish knitting a baby sweater as a gift for a friend of my mother's.
