The art of old-fashioned, personalized dressmaking is evident in every one of my Elsie Q dresses. I can turn Grandma’s vintage lace or Dad’s favorite plaid jacket into a glamorous summer dress.

Create a family tradition with my custome Tooth Fairy Pillows! Choose from your child’s favorite colors, prints, or animals and give them a gift they can use and cherish for years.
Hand-crocheted Everything Baskets are made of a variety of re-purposed fibers, from outgrown wool sweaters to unraveled cotton stocking caps. I use mine to store my socks; my friends use them for their children’s stuffed animals, and one lucky cat sleeps in his basket every afternoon.
Join the tea party and take home hand-crocheted fruits, vegetables, and baked goodies! I started making these soft, plush pieces for the children in my life, and now playtime is always a sweet treat.
Each Elsie Q dress is one of a kind and custom-made to fit you and your little one just right. She can match your style in her very own Elsie Q dress, or turn any reversible dress inside-out for a cute contrasting look!
So many dresses! So little time!
