Wrapped and bow attached!

I apologize for the colors in these photos. I snapped pictures, went to download them onto my computer and the battery dies. I decide to wrap my niece's present while the battery charges. Well, the color is cruddy on the pictures but I am not unwrapping a gift to take pictures again, sorry!
Here is the outfit- Ottobre 1/2007 knit top is #35, the skort is #37, size 140 with extra length.
I tried the t-shirt with self-fabric ribbing and it didn't lay right. I had some nice white ribbing and that worked perfectly for the t-shirt but left it lacking. I thought an embroidery would be in order and I had Roses in Bloom by Smith Street Designs, applique embroidery. One of their designs looked quite a bit like the skort fabric. Take a look

Lastly the doll outfit:

    What a beautiful gift you are giving. The trench is so pretty, the flower, the skort, shorts, everything. What a fun time she'll have opening her box!
