This is a dress that I began to make a very long time ago. It is for my art theme 'The link between folklore and imagination and the manifestation in children and their possessions'. I hand-sewed (as in without a machine) nearly all of it except for the boring old straight-seams! It took AGES but was definitely worth it. I think it would be a little too small for a Real-Life baby, but maybe I'll make a doll to fit.

ReplyDeletei would have Loved to play with that dress when i was little. My old black and white 'about me' photo on my blog shows proof of that. my aunty (best friend) had converted her fifties rock and roll tuille pettycoat for me, and made one tiny little pink satin pearl at the neck. and she probably hand sewed all of that too.
