purples
Almost the entire month of April has been spent in big laborious, stressy, behind-the-scenes, long shot sort of enterprises. I'm ready for a break! The weather has been beautiful and yesterday I took Oscar & Phoebe to the park. Me! Not my babysitter, not Grandma, but me. It was lovely. I have a few more things to finish up and then it'll be on to...well, I guess sitting and thinking about what it'll be on to. That will be lovely too. And it might be purple related. Not generally a fan but I have been digging on lavender and its friends lately. I think it's because Phoebe looks so pretty in it.

I love the purples! (of course I've always been a fan - but I've got about the same color hair as Phoebe!) That tutu is so darn cute!

Fun stuff! I'm revisiting purple too, mostly because my daughter is named Violet, and because purple can be such a nice break from pink.
Is that the start of yarn hair on that doll? I so need a how to!

That purple Kaffe Fassett is one of my favourite fabrics - it pops up all over my house in lots of different projects! I only wish I could buy some more. Looking forward to seeing what you do with your purple!

I'm jealous of your park weather...it's snowing here :(

Phoebe looks so cute in her tutu, and I love the big purple bow. I love all the decoration at the bottom of them, the blue really goes well with her shirt.

Well, I think you're going to be in trouble picking a color, because doesn't Phoebe look so good in everything? :0)

How funny! I am not usually a purple person either, but lately I have been quite into it as well,after seeing so much beauty in purple on French blogs! ;)

I cannot wait to see what you are up to! Phoebe looks so cute in her purple skirt! I have boys so there is no pink and purple here!

What a sweet little shot of your cutie.

Oh my goodness. What a little pretty princess. That hair! I want to snuggle my face in it. I miss my girls being little and sweet.

Is that a tutu from Nathalie at Kennedy & Friends?? I love the purple on Phoebe! My daughter has the same coloring and purple is her favorite color.

I am generally not a Purple fan. but maybe it's the teal (my favourite!) that's making me love that so much.
She sure is a sight for sore eyes! What a picture.
