Christian 3 month. "Discovery of feet!"
Nothing is more appropriate for baby than a daygown. So, when sewing for the little man, I can usually keep the daddy happy by adding a touch of blue, using purchased tatting instead of lace, and then make him practice saying, "This is a daygown, not a dress."
This lovely daygown is made by pattern #125 out of ecru and blue handkerchief linen. The instructions for the Madeira hem are included in the pattern.
Tiny tucks and a touch of hand embroidery gives the gown an elegant look.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful as always. I too repeat over and over, "its a daygown not a dress!"
ReplyDeleteThat is such a precious picture, and the gown is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI made a couple for my first grandson. My daughter told my son-in-law that Cayden was wearing baby looking clothes for at least a year, and then she would let up. LOL
