In Progress: a 1914 Afternoon Dress


Setting aside the poly crepe satin (or whatever it is my sister chose for her 1940s dress!) I began working on the little details of a 1914 Afternoon Dress. White on white hand embroidery and Anne of Avonlea is how I'm spending my Thursday afternoon.

Oh! How lovely!! I am sure the dress will be gorgeous. I love hand embroidery white-on-white. It looks so old-fashioned.

I, too, like white on white embroidery. Any embroidery is fun to do, and it helps refine my poor skills! :)
