Scalloped Yoke Dress with Ecru Embroidery

The scalloped yoke for this dress was created using Sarah Howard Stone, Inc. Pattern Package I. Ecru lace was shaped to follow the curve of the scallops and hand pin stitched on the upper edge of the lace. I adjusted the depth of the puff sleeve in this pattern by adding an inch to the depth.

The front yoke features feather stitched bows on the high points of the scallops with bullion roses interspersed across the yoke. The back yoke does not have embroidery.

The skirt is embroidered with feather stitched scallops and bows. Rosebuds surrounding the bows finish off the design. The skirt is finished with a lace band and lace ruffle.

This beautiful dress was a custom order and has been sold.
