Apple Fall Harvest

Autumn in the midwest is GORGEOUS! Cool crisp night air, sunny days, blue skies dotted with white fluffy clouds, and the spectacular colors of the fall leaf-turn. It's been a favorite time of year all of my life.

One of my many happy memories from childhood is the fall apple harvest. The fun began with a ride on the tractor with Pap, a picnic lunch lovingly prepared by Granny, and tree climbing to fetch the apples! As if all that fun even needed a reward, it had many in the homemade goodies of applesauce, apple butter, apple cake, and apple pie. Yummy! To this day, the sight and smell of apples bring those happy days to mind.

Maybe those lovely memories have something to do with being drawn to these adorable apple fabrics or maybe ther'e just darling i nthier own right. Perfect for border skirts, peasant tops and dresses, reversible pinafores, and ruffle pants! The colors are also perfect for pairing up with corduroy in leaf green, milk chocolate brown, winter white, and red. Oh, and of course, everything does with denim! See the fun styles in the shop. Here's a peek at a few of my fave fabric combos.

These amazingly gorgeous shots are the artwork of Dallas Metroplex photographer Suymey Benson of Blossom Portraiture Art. Her darling model shows off our newest pants: the Cha Cha ruffle pant. Similar in style to our Rumba Pants which have ruffles down the back, the Cha Cha features ruffles all the way around. The style is another collaboration with Suymey. The photos are copyrighted by Suymey, so please use them only with her express permission. You can write to her at www.blossomportraitureart.com

Cha Cha pants are available in sizes 12 months to 8 girls. In addition to the denim shown, they come in several colors of 21 wale corduroy. For a one of a kind look, they can also be made with the quilting weight cotton of your choice.
