The evolution of bows...

I was thinking about this as I was making a bow for Samantha's outfit this morning.... It's funny how I used to have the opinion that huge bows were not for me. Being a tomboy I honestly never thought I would be so in to dressing Samantha up with all her do-dads and such. Yet here I am making these great big head-tipper bows. I realize now that it starts out small, and then before you know it the bow is out of control. Let me explain...

Here we are at the start. A very small bow. Very cute.
A little bigger...
and bigger....
and bigger....
Here I am trying a different kind of bow. The double layer....The seven layer bow....Just when you don't think it can get any bigger....





Now let's review........


AND NOW FOR THE LATEST AND GREATEST BOW OF ALL!!




Have I lost it? Did I go overboard with this one?

  1. I love them all and I think going big is so cute! Her head isn't as tiny any more so it can hold those big ones. I think you've got the talent, go big!! They are so cute!

    But about the bows... I still don't think they are as big as Erika's HUGE-mungous flower bows. HAHA
