Smocked My Socks Off

Why the Blog Title?  

My mom was an amazing seamstress (among being the best mom).  I never appreciated what she could do until now...I have a daughter.  My mom learned how to smock and made some amazing dresses for me.  She kept most of them so they now hang in my daughter's closet.  I look at them every now and then to make sure that my daughter hasn't out grown them yet.  She still has about a year to go before she can fit into any of them.  I can't wait and neither can my dad.

If my mom was still alive she would be a Facebook addict, a big time blogger with multiple blogs, and one of the pioneers of Pinterest!  She soaked up technology and boy would she love what we can do now!

I'm not a writer or an amazing seamstress but I am my mother's daughter and I want to share with the world.  My thoughts, my crafts, and my kids!  Bare with me as I write what I feel and share what I do!  

My mom and I are below.

  And then it is me in one of my favorite smocked dress.  The green crayon dress!
This Blog is dedicated to you mom...You Smocked My Socks Off!
