Just bursting with spring time cheer is this smocked bubble decorated with birdhouses.

Smocked Pigs Dress

Pigs might not be the first thing that comes to your mind when you think about smocked clothing for children, but you have to admit, these smocked pigs are adorable. This smocked jumper from the Vive La Fete Collection is made of easy-to-care-for polyester/cotton fabric. It is so easy to put on and take off since it buttons at the shoulders. It has a 3 inch hem which can be let out as your child grows. It comes with a white short sleeve blouse with a peter pan collar trimmed with dainty pink ric rac. It has button closures in the back. The jumper can be worn with the white blouse or without. The smocking design on the jumper includes the cutest pink pigs that you can’t help but love!

At the time of this post, this little  Vive La Fete  jumper is available in several sizes at the Snowbunny Boutique. (See remarks regarding this Children’s Boutique in my recent post featuring a smocked sandcastle bishop dress by Be Mine) Many designs such as this one may be limited, so when they sell, there may not be any more listed for sale.

I am partial to this outfit because I decorated my first child’s nursery with a barnyard theme and pigs were a big part of that. I painted pigs and cows and horses on the baby’s crib and stitched an appliqué pig wall hanging to match the cow, chicken, and lamb wall hangings. We also had also had a wind up plush pig that played music. This little outfit reminds me of those days.

Vintage Smocked Dress Pattern

The dress style on this classic pattern never goes out of style.

Come browse through the vintage smocked sewing patterns as well as recently published smocked dress patterns for babies, toddlers, and girls and boys. You’ll be inspired!

Patterns like the one pictured above are rarely available in stores because they are out of print. But because of eBay, vintage patterns that would be gathering dust are recycled when they find a buyer that needs just such a pattern.  I see eBay and sites like eBay as great for the environment.  Items that would be going to waste are bought and used.  Not only that, but so many of the sellers are stay-at-home Moms or family businesses.  We can feel good about supporting their efforts.

Are you searching for a bargain?  All of the following smocked outfits, including quality boutique brands, are priced to sell right now for less than $10.00 on eBay.  Hurry, if you want to buy any of these today.  This is just a sampling and there are many more that will suit  a slim budget.
