Child’s dress

Vintage dress patterns project: Some dainty tatting trimmed garments for little folks

Clusters of hand-run tucks, tatted insertion, and a bit of embroidery are daintily combined in this pretty dress for a very small person. The tatting is inserted between the clusters of tucks over the shoulders and around the bottom of skirt and the sleeves and neck are finished with a tiny tatted edge.

There is a spray of French embroidery across the yoke and at the exact center of front, back, and sides of skirt between the two rows of insertion, and the narrow ribbon draw-string t end of sleeve is run through embroidered eyelets.
