This precious Ragland sleeve daygown is created using white Swiss Bearissima II batiste. I personally hand tatted the pink edging (DMC #776, weight 80) which is applied flat to both sides of the placket and neck edge. The same edging is applied to the fabric ruffle at the sleeves. The sleeve ruffle was hand rolled and whipped as well as the neck and sleeve edges. The hem is blind hemmed by hand.
The gown features single rosebuds hand embroidered along the placket.
The pink tatted bonnet and booties feature blue medallions. Both items are VINTAGE and have been cleaned and laundered. Fresh ivory ribbon has been used to complete these items. These items are the first I have seen tatted in the pink and blue. I absolutely fell in love with them when I came across them and envisioned the day gown to match. Please note there is a very subtle color difference between the vintage bonnet/booties and the new edging.
These beautiful items are available for sale at my Etsy store:
