I love this dress! It is one of my favorite creations that Amy has made. Unfortunately, the day of our photo shoot, I don't think Chloe was feeling the love. The really sad thing is that she was the happier of the two babies the day of the photo shoot. Despite the miserable baby in the picture, people seem to recognize how cute the dress is. This week, I have been tasked with making a flower to match this dress for a baby shower. The person wanted a pink flower that was 2-3" big. She likes a pearl in the center and liked the peony style better than the gerber daisy. These are the options I came up with.
#1: This is a hot pink flower with a large white pearl in the center. The bright pink is a close match to the pink flowers in the print.
#3: This one is a little out of the box, but I just couldn't help myself. This is the same hot pink as the first one, but there is a cluster of orange ruffly petals in the center with a peachy pearl. I just love how the orange and the pink coordinate with the dress.
#4 This is a lighter pink to contrast with the fabric. The petals are a little more pointy than the other options. The center is actually a brad that is covered in a light fabric that has a really neat texture. I wish I had the photography skills to show off the center, but you will just have to use your imagination.
#5: This is made from the same type of peony that little Chloe is wearing in the photo, but I only used the smaller center petals so that it wouldn't be as huge. It has a white pearl in the center. I do have a couple of the full size ones just like the one in the photo that have either a clear gemstone center or a glittery white center. They are cute, but they are also big.
