As promised here are the pictures of Lullibell all dressed up for Civil War day. We have been playing Civil War for days and she is always Clara Barton. Too funny. So without further ado…
The changes to the costume were small. I made a purple tulle slip for her to wear and give the dress some puff and added the purple sash and hair ribbon. She was glad not to have the apron from Constitution day because she said it kept falling off! And of course there would have been a hat if it hadn’t been so windy and Momma hadn’t waited until THE VERY LAST MINUTE!!!

She is getting much too tall for me. In no time, she will be taller than myself. So beautiful and you did a great job. HAPPY EASTER TO EVERYONE IN YOUR FAMILY!!
