On a recent outing to Portsmouth with Thea and Misa, I fell in love with some Heather Ross Fabric at the Portsmouth Fabric Company. Unicorns and flowers? Yes, please. I didn't even know I liked unicorns.

Two cherished yards have since been converted into another smock using a pattern that has been tested and refined on less precious fabric.
I cannot emphasize enough how important it is to test a pattern with your non-dreamy stuff. If it does not work out, the lessons learned are immeasurable and the disappointment is easy to get over. The garment can and should be donated to charity. If it does work out, super!
This one is a keeper. I have since purchased more Heather Ross fabric -- her aesthetic speaks to me.

Love it and so glad you're posting again!
Love this. Unicorns!
So unexpectedly perfect fabric for a smock, and DELIGHTED to see a new post!
I love all your smocks. Any suggestions on patterns that can be used for a similar style?
aDORable!!! another beautiful smock! i'm a big fan of Heather's berry prints too.
Love your smock-is there a pattern?
Where can I get the pattern?
What pattern was used for this smock? It's beautiful! Just my style!
Hey all, thanks for the kind words on this pattern! It is my own design, there is no pattern available. I am tempted to learn how to write, grade and draft paper patterns, and this will be the first one on the list if that happens. I really appreciate your positive feedback!
