Notes of interest:

The pattern for the cape is found in Oliver + S: Little Things to Sew

The free pattern for Karoline's skirt is found here (I slightly altered so that I could use some leftover fabric)

Katie and Karoline are both wearing the large size. Sarah is wearing the medium.

Katie's fabric: Sugar Dots in Blue and Kona Cotton Cardinal

Karoline's fabric: Sugar & Spice in Green and Kona Cotton Cardinal

Sarah's fabric: Sugar Floral in Pink and Kona Cotton Cardinal

Sarah does not like to play in the rain. She doesn't like dirt or water on her toes. If you return on a sunny day (after we've found her shoes), she'll be happy to pose in her cape.

The blue fairy swing was constructed by Katie and she's mighty proud that it survived both Irene and Lee. Our internet connection did not survive and I've been away from telephone, television, and internet for several days (thanks to last week's bundling of services). It's been quiet. Sewing while the rain pounded was lovely. But I've missed you and it's nice to connect without having to dash out to the local internet cafe:-)
