Daffodils in Spring


This little set is made from fine cotton lawn and has pin tucks and inset lace to the skirt.  It fastens at the shoulder with snap fasteners.  Because the lawn is fine I have included a separate petticoat trimmed with the same lace edging as the dress.
The double layer wrap around shawl is trimmed with the same matching lace and ties at the back with ribbons.
All seams are overlocked so no unsighly raw edges.

The bonnet is made from felt and trimmed with ribbon and lace and finished off with 3 small silk Daffodils. SOLD
