Learning to Smock

The older four girls took an introductory smocking class a couple weeks ago. Rose especially is very interesting in such projects so this was right up her alley. The lady was so kind and spent four hours teaching the girls the basics.  When I went to pick them up, she was teary-eyed about her time with them and couldn't believe how patient they were to learn the stitch.  She was such a kind and gentle woman.

Rose was hooked.  She even wore a dress that had smocking on the front without realizing it until class.
