This christening gown was created using the ingenuity of the Victorian era embroiderers. The gown or dress is recreated from an antique gown; lace insertion is creatively arranged in zigzag shapes, applied by machine and intermixed with hand embroidered motifs. Shadow stitched flowers and leaves add hand-made elegance to the mahine constructed gown. Decorative machine stitches and lace insertion complete the hem of the skirt. This beginner-friendly project is filled with easy to master hand and machine techniques. Size 6 months
Kit contains cotton organza, over 20 yards of laces including edgings, insertions, and entredeux, Floche, thread, buttons, needles, pattern, and complete instructions.
