Hello this is Sumay here, Joanne’s friend and a big fan of her blog. I was at my friend’s house when I was telling her about Joanne’s blog. Puan Rashidah took out her creations that she made for my friend, Effie, 33 years ago! Puan Rashidah at that time was a housewife residing in England so to kill time and of course dress up her cute daughter, she would crochet these wonderful little dresses that have withstood the test of time!!! From my observation, Puan Rashidah must have been the most patient crafter as I did not see any mistakes in them!!!

    This dress is indeed very well-preserved! Just wonder how many times it has been used. ;)

    Good question, I have no idea but Puan Rashidah made a lot and some of them were passed on to other relatives. I guess it wasn’t used often as children tend to out-grow their clothes after 1.5 years or so???
