There’s something special about receiving a handmade gift from a loved one. It’s like they’ve taken the time and effort to create something just for you, something that’s unique and personal.

For me, growing up, my mother would always make my sisters and I handmade dresses. We would love picking out our own fabric and design, and my mother would always do an amazing job putting them together. As we got older, she would take us to pick out our own fabric and help us choose the design.

It’s those little handmade gifts that mean so much because they’re made with love. And even though the materials may not be the most expensive, it’s the thought and effort that counts. So if you have a loved one who likes to make things by hand, cherish those gifts, because they’re truly special.

      Fran, It looks like her blog has been reorganized so the link no longer works. I think this is the same pattern: http://www.burdastyle.com/patterns/child-summer-frock It’s on BurdaStyle but the author is the same. –Anne
