Description
Dress up your doll in a dainty white frock with apron and ruched bonnet, a pretty smocked bubble suit topped by an adorable piped beret, or even a long, pink, full-skirted gown and taffeta-lined cape. These exquisitely worked outfits, often edged in sumptuous lace and with a variety of heirloom sewing trims, take every detail and accessory into account: undergarments, petticoats and pantaloons, hats, bags, crocheted shoes, and more. And there's something for a boy doll too: a woolen coat, short trousers, and a matching cap. Most delicately beautiful of all is a complete, elaborate christening layette, shown on a breathtaking little baby doll. Patterns are included for each costume, along with diagrams for all needlework techniques. 104 pages (8 in color), 83 b/w illus., 8 1/4 x 11.
