Do you know how it was done? I believe I made dots every 1 1/2 inch, then the next row was moved halfway between those dots???

I am glad that you plan to make some smocked pillows! With your handsmocked and embroidery touches, they are bound to surpass the ones I have seen. In the world of the handmade, time is always the limiter. Our creativity and ideas are always way more than we ever have time to accomplish. That is why I enjoy looking at the results of other people's creative endeavors like yours. It connects me to my creative urges and gives me a sense of vicarious accomplishment. We can't make all the things that we wish to, but we can make some of them. I would like to feature a blog post on you and your dresses on my site: artisticfamily.com. I just need permission to use some of your pictures from your gallery. I can write the post from what you tell me you would like or from the info on your About page. I'll include a link to your site. Most of my featured posts have been on specific eBay stores that sell beautiful smocked children's clothing and have 100% positive feedback. I want to feature artists like you, too, who have so much to offer people who are looking for quality smocked children's clothing. Judy, let me know if you are interested. THanks, Julie Judy,
