old new old

this coat is 30+ years old. it was made by a loving grandmother from her own coat for her granddaughter who's mother has saved it for 30+ years for her own granddaughters. how generous, caring, and wonderful is that?







this next one is my absolute favorite from today, if i am allowed to say that.


and this next one is just because. because it is different. and she is fun.
