French Acadian Gown for Baby Girl - post 3

Baby Slip

I am working on my gift for The Baby Shower for my new Granddaughter.  The Shower is Oct. 1 so I have a deadline.   See   Post 1,  Post 2

I began my sewing at night and didn't trust myself to start on the gown, so I stitched the slip.

I've finished most of the top.  Whip tucks and Shell Hem.

To learn how to do the Shell Hem.. see here.

I have chosen all of my laces.  Lovely Malines.

The gown is hand hemstitched at the neck. Done!

Both sleeves have tiny hand stitched pin tucks and are marked for embroidery.

This is too much fun.

May this child be a blessing to all who know her

"He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways. "

Psalm  91:11

The Choice

I decided to make Baby Girls Gown using  my pattern "French Acadian Christening Gowns".

I want it to be in the style of….but it won't be exactly the same, partly because it will be shorter than a Christening Gown.

So, I am looking at several garments that are similar to what I want.

More decisions to make!!

And I haven't even taken one stitch yet! :(
