Sometime in March our family is going to be blessed with a great niece! This has been a long awaited bundle of joy.
Well, tomorrow is the first of many baby showers. I made this little dress from Jeannie Baumeister's The Old Fashion Baby Embroidered Raglan Daygown.
The fabric is Swiss Flannel from Martha Pullen and Company https://store.marthapullen.com/p-4943-cotton-swiss-flannel-white.aspx

I tweaked the embroidery design a little. Instead of lazy daisy I added bullion roses. It just fits the new mother's personality. The embroidery colors match the flower girl dresses I did for her wedding.

I still need to make a matching bonnet but that will have to wait till next week.
What beautiful embroidery. I am envious. Maybe I just don't take the time to sit and work through it.
ReplyDeleteHow lovely, as always.
ReplyDeleteI know I do need to take the time and work through this and smocking. Retirement will come someday....
What beautiful embroidery! I love what you did.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work. Hope that the recipient will appreciate the love and work that went into the gift.

Absolutely adorable! Will you make a bonnet to match?
ReplyDeleteHi! Where can I buy that cute dress? I want to purchase one for my new born baby. I've been into different online stores but I was not able to find a dress like that.
ReplyDeleteWow, this Baby Shower Gift is amazing. I loved the embroidery on it. It is a rocking creativity, as always. At one of the local party venues in NYC I also would be attending a baby shower of a cousin. But I can’t work on the embroidery like that so might go with the patch work on a DIY outfit.
