Baby in a Cute Slip



Baby Londyn is wearing my Little Yoke Slip.

The Little Yoke Slip  is perfect as a slip or a Summer Slip Dress.


Because I made  this slip to go underneath a dress......



I used a shear fabric that matched the dress.



I  finished the neck edge and the armholes with a hand Shell Hem.  
And added pretty embroidery on the yoke.


For a Summer Slip Dress, I would choose a fabric that was not so transparent.

Perhaps a Lawn or Dress Weight Batiste.
Plenty to choose from.

"Give me the joys of summer,
    Of SUMMER QUEEN so fair,
With wealth of lovely flowers
    And fruits and sun-kissed air!"
