This dress is perfect for many occasions, from baby coming home, to holidays, baptisms, or just those special moments in the garden with mom. The dress and bonnet use size 10 thread, adorned with little flower motifs made from embroidery floss. (Size 10 thread can be substituted for the embroidery floss). The vintage colors used in this dress are breathtaking, creating an heirloom to be passed down. This dress can also be made into a gown, since it works from the top down with no seam-sewing; just continue working to desired length before the edging.
