A Princess And Her New Coat

 Once upon a time there was a little princess who, even though she had every toy you could think of in her beautiful castle, got a little bored.

So she decided to put on the new coat her mama made her and go for a walk outside to enjoy a little sunshine.

She admired the trees, sat still listening to the little birds, who sang especially for her.

She played with the animals of the forest and collected some beech nuts.

She had a wonderful time. And after some lovely hours in that magical garden, she got tired and went home to her castle.

There she hung her new coat (with the mandatory pink! and flowery! lining) on a hanger and took a well deserved nap.

Sleep well, little princess. And when you wake up, the magical garden will be waiting for you.

    Wow Karin you did an excellent job. The coat looks amazing, and the pictures are to die for. Is that last pic your front door? I love the pink lining as well, it's beautiful. What a lucky girl to have such a talented mum.

    The coat came out wonderfully! Your daughter looks so pretty in it, especially with the fluffy dress that makes it fan out around her. The pictures you took are just as magnificent. Congratulations!

    Truly, it's lovely -- all of it. The "story", the photos, the coat (and lining!). And what a cool cool umbrella. Is that something you just have laying around your house?!?
