Dressing for Fall in the Country (November 2015)

We celebrated Thanksgiving with my husband's family in the mountains of North Carolina.  There are three little second cousins, all born about a year apart - a one year old, a two year old and a three year old. I thought it would be cute for them to have matching outfits.  It wasn't hard to find the perfect fabric from the Makower "Sherwood" collection.  It was a featured fabric on one of my favorite sites, Hawthorne Threads.  I liked this fabric because it was good for fall, but not overtly Thanksgivingy, so I thought the kids might be able to rehear the outfits.  I also liked it for this project because there are two girls and a boy, and the fabric isn't too feminine.

I decided to do a peasant dress for the girls and a vest for the little boy.  Both were very easy. I loved doing the two fabrics on both.  I thought the inside stag pattern gave the vest a little cheeky flair.
