Baby's First Daygown - View 2



View 2  is my Fancy Daygown in this pattern.  It has a lovely lace yoke that features lace insertion bordered with lace edging.  And sweet embroidery is nestled inside the lace yoke.

This sweet Baby (about 5 weeks old)  is wearing the Newborn size with 3/4 length sleeves

Pretty, but not so much that it overwhelms baby.


My embroidery is Featherstiching and Bullions  but you can use the stitches you like best.


Front and back view.


I love the little Rosebud at the sleeve.

Materials:
1 yard fabric
 1/2 yard lace insertion (3/8" wide)
 3 3/8 yards lace edging (3/8" or 1/2" wide)
3/8 yard entredeux
5 Baby Buttons
