I finished this Daygown last night and I was excited to get pictures this morning!
The lighting was interesting but not great for Daygown picture taking.
It was very early morning.
This is my new Daygown pattern - Baby's First Daygowns.
I used a mint green Geiger Batiste (kinda like Fairy Fabric only a closer woven fabric, very yummy)
I have shown this little daygown several times in progress but I have been so slow about finishing it that I'm sure none of you will remember having seen me working on it.
A sweet little Rosebud for the sleeve.
The cuff sleeves are so quick to stitch.
I used an antique lace that I was saving for...what was I saving it for? I was just saving it.
Well, this is part of my Have More Fun resolution. It is even more fun to sew on your treasured lace and fabric. And, I want to use my good stuff myself, I have no intention of it ending up in a garage sale!!
I found a new lace that is similar to this old lace. Very happy with it.
And this is my Sweetheart Rose. Blooming from my Garden.
It has such a sweet smell, too.
I finally took the Daygown outside for more light and hung it on my front bench.
do you like it?
I have to step back and show you a view of the flowers growing around the bench.
It is Spring in Baton Rouge!
Flowers in pots on my front porch.
Happy Monday!

ReplyDeleteI love it Jeannie. One question. Do you use a twin needle and picktuck foot for your pintucks or do you do them manually?
ReplyDeleteI did these tucks by folding the fabric on the fold line and stitching them...no double needle.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jeannie. I have an edge foot too, so I'll definitely give it a try too. One day when you have some time, do you think you could show us how to pull a thread when doing your tucks. The pattern says you can pull a thread or mark it.
ReplyDeleteYes, Angela I would like to do that. I would also like some extra time!
