Part 6b:1940s babyreproduction yellow accents

front reproduction

I thought I had taken pictures of this before I added the lace trim but I can not find them now.  Oh well!  Here is what my repo of the last slip looks like.  Like I said earlier it was too simple for me so I added some yellow tatting that I made years ago to the item to make it a little fancier I may still add some embroidery to it.  All of the items are to fit a baby about 1 year old for some reason this pattern/ slip was designed to fit a newborn so it is much smaller than the other ones.
hem

Pattern of tatting is in the original post of when I was making this tatting.  I added tatting to the neck area, arm holes and hem of the slip.  I used cotton batiste for this again.  All these dresses and slips have french seams.

  1. I've enjoyed watching your show and tell of the little baby gowns. I haven't read all the way back, but I remember when babies wore these most of the time in summer. Yours are precious and brought back many memories!
