A needle pulling thread- it's been a while...

It's really hot outside so i thought of staying home and do some cleanings.  While arranging my wardrobe i found one interesting red chili dress.  It's a smocking dress done by me in 2003 huhu.   I remember smocked for my daughter who was 1 year old that time.  It was my first attempt I've learned from my mum.

I always think that is a good idea to use plain fabric to smock with especially for a beginner like me (in those days lah).  Well, for first timer i think the dress is ...so, so..lah ! haha..
