| Big Sister Dress from Vintage Cutwork Pillowcase... length is approximately 20", plus ribbon straps $35, or $60 for both "sister" dresses |
The pillowcase dresses with blue embroidered cutwork and light blue grossgrain ribbon ties would be perfect for sisters... or cousins or friends close in age. The pillowcases were matching, but one had been patched, so the result was a slightly smaller dress!
The bib is created from a double ruffle lace doily that I suspect was tatted. The collar was a linen doily with openwork embroidery and a heavy crochet lace. And the jacket is created from a cross-stitched linen table runner with crochet lace edging. Since the stitching is in hues of lavendar, yellow, gold, and white, I accented this jacket with a purple button atop a snap closure. A small piece of crochet trim covers fills in an area where the years had taken a toll on the embroidery. I think it gives the jacket added character!
Next week, I'm thinking reds and pinks! Stay tuned!!! Click on any image below for larger view or a link to my Etsy shop for purchasing!
