This is a basic linen-type dress I just adore. Something that should have been in my girl´s garderobe months ago, but didn´t happen until now:
 |
| I wanted to keep this simple, and give room to the material itself. Not 100% linen, but close enough, color and all. Combined with an off-white body shirt underneath, I really get a sense of 1800´s going on here. |
 |
| I couldn´t resist adding some contrast and depth to the dress. These bows I bought ready-made from a craft store, and they keep well in machine wash too. Color black suits well the old-fashioned style. |
 |
| I hand-painted this text with a small brush and some textile paint. Very handy and versatile tool for many uses. |
 |
| In the back I added random buttons, each different from the other, but in the same color scale. |
 |
| Unlike in many of my creations, the top two buttons actually work! |
This lovely little piece is not sabbat-related, and therefore can be worn year round (although in case of a baby, it will not fit her that long =).
