I love how the shadow embroidery came out on the silk batiste. Nice and colorful!
It also had a matching bonnet.
It had an embroidered brim:
My customer also wanted lace pantaloons to go under the dress so it can be worn with some darling Victorian boots!
It was a very labor intensive, yet fun project. I am thrilled that I was able to create it for my customer. I hope she will be pleased!!

Silk Ribbon Sneak Peek~
Here is a sneak peek of a glorious Easter dress that I am working on. This set is inspired by Kari Mecca's FairyTale Finery dress. The customer wanted the overall look of that dress but not exactly. Also, her pattern is not out yet so I just had to draw up the design freehand. Here is a preview! I'll post the finished design next week. This is some of the embroidery on the skirt:
More to come soon! :o)

Another Smocked Easter dress finished!
This little dress turned out sooooo sweet! I love the buttery yellow and all the flowers.
I think the tatting is just the right touch to the collar and sleeves.
The seed beads and pearls are a little hard to photograph, but there are lots of them! :o)
I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.......off to do more sewing! :o)

Latest AS&E contribution
AS&E just sent me a sneak peek of one of my dresses that they are publishing...but you can't see a whole lot of the dress in the photo! lol
Anyway, I just thought I would share. It will be in the next issue.
Here is a closeup photo that I took before I mailed it off :o)
The smocking features lemon wedges and lemon blossom flowers. They are also embroidered in the skirt bands.
I am looking forward to seeing the issue!
