Very nice! Any suggestions other than lavender?

I've been making these sleep dolls for years I have one that was my father's that I treasure. Yours are adorable I put the letter of the child's first name in the middle of the dress or overalls so they learn letters. Love your site. I teach an after school embroidery class to 4th-6th graders at my daughter-in-laws school. your ideas are great, Thanks Sharon
