Sow a packet of Violas one time in your garden and every year they will gift you with more and more tiny plants without any work help from you. What I find so fascinating about these tiny pansy-like flowers is that one basic heirloom variety begets many different color combinations. So, if you are a pansyaholic, enjoy shades of purple, and love surprises in your garden throw down a packet of these in the spring and enjoy for years to come.
The violas growing in my garden inspired me to create this little dress for my Fairyland Pukipuki Sugar. I used bullion stitch, colonial knots, lazy daisy, back stitch, and oyster stitches to create the embroidery on this hand knit lilac bamboo dress.
