| St Patty and easter dresses - need some feedback I was not intending to make St. Patrick dresses but I had a couple of customers inquiring if I was going to make some . . . so thought I'd check to see if there really is a good enough reason to make one. I have been to the fabric store and nothing except one caught my interest should I make it, but it is of an older print and have seen other vendors carry that material already. For easter dresses, I really was planning on making spring dresses that would work well for easter, but I was wondering if there are a lot of you that would buy easter dresses with bunny/egg prints Feedback for this would help me decide on what dresses to offer for these 2 upcoming holidays. |

| We don't really do anything for St. Patrick's Day, so I probably wouldn't buy a special dress for that. As for Easter, I could go either way. I would probably rather a spring dress that would work well for Easter, but I'm sure one with eggs or bunnies would be so cute that if I saw it I would have to have it! Your embroidery is just so adorable!! As for down the road----I do know that I can't wait for a cute one for 4th of July!!!!! I'm hoping you will be making some!

| Des, I definately would like a St. Patty's Day dress for Kalina. I would be happy with any fabric, just so long as it looks like it's for St. Patty's Day. Regarding Easter. I want to dress up Matty Lu and Kalina in matching Easter dresses this year. I would LOVE a lamb print. I LOVE lambs. Or, if you do an Easter egg print skirt could you embellish with a lamb on the bodice? Just my 2 cents. Thanks!

| I say go for it............for every little holiday..... My two don't have a specific outfit for St. Patrick's Day, but they will wear their green hair bows for sure....and possibly an outfit that has some green on it. I wish we did more for St. Patrick's Day...but we normally don't. As for Easter, I am just using Spring colors for their outfits....BUT that doesn't mean I wouldn't buy something if I thought it was just too adorable to pass up...I too like lambs...or pastel flowers/grass...etc. AND...I of course, would want something for the boys too...that way we can match.

| I would love to have a Easter/spring dress. Something that I could use for all spring and not just Easter. I usually don't do anything special for St. Patricks Day. |

| I agree! Lady has several for St. Patty's Day, though, so I wouldn't buy anymore. I think Easter dresses are a great idea. Maybe something typically Easter like bunnies or eggs, but also something that can be worn other times like spring flowers in yellow or lavender. |

| To be honest, I probably wouldn't buy a St. Patty's Day dress...we don't really do anything. I agree with everyone else, I would prefer a spring dress to an Easter dress. I LOVE duckie fabrics and butterflies...I found some spring fabrics I like...something like these... |

| I usually don't buy Dior themed dresses. I guess you can do a limited edition st. Pat dress since there aren't many that celebrate that holiday. I always love seeng your designs, you are very creative

| Lacy already has a St. Patrick's dress. And St. Patrick's isn't a holiday you can celebrate all month like Christmas so I don't think she needs anymore so I probably wouldn't buy one. I don't need an Easter-specific dress just because we already have so many pastel, spring dresses that would work nicely for the holiday. But I think making lots of new Spring Dresses is a great idea!! We love dresses we can wear more than once a year

| I like "holiday themed" outfits. My kids will wear them starting 2 weeks ahead of the holiday - just like people. But I can understand some not wanting to invest in them until their babies are adult size. We use our clothes mostly for walking - so they get their use out of them - and all the neighbors think they're so festive!

| I like the idea of outfits for all occasions, I too would prefer a Spring dress more than an Easter dress, that way Lil' Miss Izzie could wear it more often. I like the suggestion made of spring flowers in yellow/lavender.

| I too would prefer a spring dress over an Easter dress. Your dresses are always so gorgeous and I would love to be able to show Roxie off in her cute dresses on more than one occasion. Roxie does not have a St. Patrick's day dress and I am sure if you make one I will fall in love with it ~ but I am on a very strict budget since I am pretty sure that Roxie will need surgery ~ so Des please don't tempt me!!
