Baby Dress for Fair

I finished the baby dress I was making for the County Fair entry. I chose a lilac fingering weight Bernat yarn. The bodice is worked in half doubles, with front post and back post hdcs. It creates a smocked look, absolutely gorgeous. The skirt is patterned with ch 1, skip 1, hdc; then next row has split hdc clusters with picots. There is 1/4" satin ribbon woven through the last row of the sleeves, I liked the look and decided to add a ribbon through the next-to-last row of the skirt, also. The pattern called for 6 roses embroidered on the bodice, but I thought it would detract from the smocked-look. I bought some ribbon that had white satin edging, pale green vines and leaves, then roses in lilac, pink and yellow. I cut off a single lilac rose with leaves, cut away the ribbon backing and sewed one to the center front of the bodice.
Today I finished one of the booties, and just started the second. They are beautiful! Tomorrow, bonnet. The pattern has a matching hat, it's not quite a mop hat. I don't particularly care for it, I'm thinking of attempting to make a traditional baby bonnet using the stitch pattern.
