Here’s the 2011 January birthday dress! I had thought about not doing them this year, actually, but then I had an idea for a March one that seemed like it would turn out beautifully, and now I think I will take another shot at completing a set this year. Now that January is finished, all I will have to do is one for February and I’ll be all caught up for at least a whole week!
I’ve got a good feeling about this year. This year may bring a dress for every month, including poor neglected April, July and August (thanks Liz!). For those of you with January birthdays, I am sorry this one is late; speaking of which, I’m sorry that today’s dress is late in general. Well, Sunday isn’t too bad — and for those of you for whom it is already Monday, well, I throw myself on your mercy.
January’s birth flower is the snowdrop, and the birthstone is the garnet. Incidentally, this is the first January dress I’ve done that I really like. (Technically, I liked the previous year’s dress, but it scanned out really badly and you can hardly see the pattern…)
This is without a doubt one of the most beautiful dresses you’ve ever drawn. If I had that I’d wear it all the time, it looks so comfortable =)
Oh WOW! It’s beautiful! Can’t wait to see the rest of the 2012 birthday dresses :D
Oh! I really like this one! Also, I admire you for challenging yourself!
So beautiful! By the way, do you mean 2011 birthday dresses?
Oops – indeed I do!
This one is beautiful! To bad i wasnt born in january!
Oh, I like this one. Red’s one of my favorite colors…straight behind purple.
Can’t wait for the May birthday dress…even though I hate green, it’s associated with emerald, nothing I can do!
Again, about the dress…I don’t know why, but this one sort of reminds me of the holidays. Strange.
It’s so gorgeous! Gosh I wish I could draw like this. Or had better sewing skillz and could make them into real dresses XD
Wow! That’s completely amazing, as always. I need to show it to my born-in-January friend, who wears mostly black, and hardly ever a dress, but could probably be persuaded to put this on if it were real.
I love this one! :) You have certainly outdone yourself… And I can’t wait for the next birthday gown :) Looking forward to seeing what you do with August…Peridot and the gladiolus… Interesting combination… Anyways, I really love this one <3 Hope to see more and I'm glad you are feeling better, Liana!
Ooh! I love the waistline on that one!
I just wanted to say that I’ve only just discovered your site and now I don’t know how I survived without it! You just might be my idol! Finally – the most amazing outfits I have seen in my long addiction to paper dolls!
Looks like something out of a Renaissance painting.
Artemis, it probably reminds you of the holidays because it’s red and gold. Considering it that way, it looks to me like something a holiday angel would wear.
Hey Liana,
Love this, it’s so beautiful. So glad you’re feeling better. Can’t wait til you do the February dress-purple is my favourite colour and I was born in Feb. I also always love your feb dresses!
I love this one!! Red is my FAV colour… With black though… I am SO having this one made…
Oops… Forgot… What colour are the August dresses?
That is very beautiful.
