Emily and Daisy by Elsa Beskow was recently translated into English for the first time, with the sweetest illustrations to melt your heart! Young children will love following Emily through her day as unexpected, good things come her way. Emily is a helpful little girl, so when her mother is worried that Daisy the cow will escape into the clover field through a hole in the fence, she offers to go and look after Daisy for the day. On the way, she meets a big dog, a boasting boy, and an elderly man with a sack. When she arrives in the meadow, she realizes she needs help with Daisy and to mend the fence. To whom can she turn? About the Author : Elsa Beskow (1874-1953), born Elsa Maartman in Stockholm, was a pioneering author and illustrator of children's books in Sweden—perhaps the best known of all Swedish children's book artists. Her books were inspired by her own childhood experiences, as well as those of her six children. Central themes were the relationships between children and adults and children's independent initiative. Her books are continually reprinted, and many have become classics. She also illustrated ABC books and songbooks for Swedish schools.

Inspiration to this design I found from a museum collections. The original design is green and white with wide stripes and from the first time I saw this design, I thought that this design will make an eye-catching early 1850s dress. The need would be about 6 meters and Cotton Cretonne or Popline would be my first choice. The name is freely borrowed from on of Elsa Beskows books; Tant Grön, tant Brun och tant GredelinAunt Green, Aunt Brown and Aunt Lilac. ... And here we have the Green one.
