Please use this size chart as a General Guide as each company cuts their garments to their own size specifications. To determine clothing size, measure your child’s height and weight. If your child falls within two different heights or weights on the sizing chart, please select the larger size to allow for additional growth. For babies, weight is the most important factor, while for older children height is an important factor (especially when ordering dresses).
Elizabeth Rogers was born and raised in the Dallas area. At age ten, she learned to sew doll clothes, and that inspired her to design and sew clothes for herself.
As an adult, Elizabeth pursued a degree in nursing and has enjoyed a successful career in patient care and teaching. Yet, her artistic talent continued to be expressed through clothing.
When her two daughters were in elementary school, a friend introduced Elizabeth to French hand sewing and heirloom children's clothing. Elizabeth fell in love with the delicate sheer batiste fabrics and fine laces intrinsic to heirloom styles. Soon, she created her own embroidered accents on her designs. Her favorite is the "feathered rose", a variation of the bullion rose.
Life, relocation, and careers curtailed the business that Elizabeth and her friend began long ago. Now, as the grandmother of a precious baby girl, she has had a renewed interest in making heirloom style baby clothes. And, she is finding time to make some of her creations available to our grandchildren!
Heirlooms To Be is very pleased to be able to offer these precious baby clothes handmade by Elizabeth Rogers.
