Carl Larsson-outfit for christmas.

I made this for my nieces daughters first christmas. Carl Larsson is a swedish painter who painted idyllic pics in the beginning of the 20th century. He painted his wife and daughters and all the girls has this kind of dresses with bloomers and aprons.



I think it's cute. What do you think?

This is gorgeous! I'd love to see a picture of her wearing it. You did a beautiful job.

I used to wear stuff like this when I was a baby (complete with frilly bonnets and everything)

You should definitely post a pic of her wearing it - I'm sure she looks adorable!

I'm not sure there are any pics of her wearing it, but I'll check with her mom.

There was actually a bonnet too. Made in silk imported from China.





The label says "Tiny monster".

Okay, I LOVED the outfit itself, but when I saw the bonnet!!!  That is SO freakin adorable all the way around!!  Im hitting 'this rocks'!

That's beautiful. Babies are always really cute no matter what you put them in, but I think there's always something special about dressing them like an infant instead of some of the "older" looking styles. I really like that color of red, it really stands out against the white. Also, wow that bonnet is amazing.

I found the tute for the bonnet here on craftster: http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=193082.0
It was really easy to make, sadly the pics are now gone from the post

As I said, easy to make and it looked great.
