Besides the repairing the Vintage Christening gown I am working on a "coming home" baby dress for a friend's grand baby.
I am smocking it with my smocking design "Angels Watching over Me" which is in Sew Beautiful #121 http://www.sewbeautifulmag.com/issues/issues2008.html
Here is a picture of the size 3 month dress that was in Sew Beautiful . This was a work in progress photo with pleating thread attached and the bias binding not done.
The baby is not due till the end of the month but the mom is on bed rest. I have the borders done on the newborn bishop, I will start smocking the angels as long as I can. She may end up with only one angel or maybe seven.
Beautiful. I just found your blog. I do some smocking and heirloom sewing too. Right now I'm into makeing everyday play clothes for $$, but this is not my thing.
