First things first – thank you so much to everyone who entered the Llama Fabrics giveaway last week, and for all your thoughtful comments! And Chio thanks you as well! She emailed to say she’d read all 216 entries and was so appreciative of the well wishes and supportive words that had been left for her. Really, you people are a very kind bunch.
And now it’s time to announce the lucky winner….
#130, Jen!!
((Sorry, Mom, you didn’t win!))
Jen, I’ll be emailing you today, and all that Glimma shall soon be yours!
And because a post with no photos would be no fun at all…
Preschool is over for the year, so here’s the ubiquitous first-day-and-last day-of-school-in-the-same-dress comparison photo:
As predicted in the original post, this dress has mostly hung in the closet all year. But I was relieved to find that it still fits just fine, so maybe we’ll squeeze a few more wears out of it yet. I feel like she’s changed so much since September…does it show in these photos? I’m not sure. All I know is that Summer Lila is definitely a blonde.
And last but not least, the amazing and talented Sanae has a fun series going on this week – it starts today and I hope you’ll check it out! You can find out about my favorite handmade on Wednesday (but you won’t want to miss any of her guests)!

what fun!! We do the first day/last day in the same clothes too! It’s always so fun to see how much they’ve changed, right?! I love that it’s Lila’s hair that changed the most, at least upon first look. She definitely does look more grown up 🙂
Woah, she really has grown up and yeah it’s crazy how much darker her hair is! Time for swim lessons, eh?
I can’t believe how blonde her hair gets in the summer! And I adore this dress! Hope she will wear it at least a few more times.
