Oh to be young again.

I took a picture of this photo of me when I guess from looking at it I must have been about 5or 6yrs old ? which puts it in the vintage bracket , mainly to show off the beautiful smocking my mother did all down the front of this home made dress.

Lovely Diana , you look in about the same era as me !!! I used to wear smocking too. great for I have to say it ...vintage ! I will have to fish one of mine out !!!

[Cherrill]

That smocking is brilliant - and although I've always thought that Will looks like Mac there is definitely some grandma Moss in him!!

Beautiful photo and your mother sure had alot of talent. Wow, that must have taken her forever to do.
