This unique collection shows you how add small accents - a smocked pocket on pyjamas or picture smocked patches on a boy's denim shorts; create an eye catching smocked waist band on a pretty skirt, or a gorgeous bodice for a drop waist dress; add trendy embellishments to tops for fashion conscious pre-teens; and make cute baby outfits. The ten original designs come with multi-sized patterns and complete instructions for smocking and constructing the garments. Step-by-step photographs demonstrate the various smocking techniques for the beginner, from simple embroidery and smocking stitches to picture smocking.
