Bouncing Ballet Bonnet and Baby Dress


I have a dear customer in Australia, who likes to order special gifts for any friends who are having babies. The input from said customer is always interesting, and a starting point for what I am going to put as decorative motifs on the outfits. This time it was for the baby of a former ballerina, so the Swan Lake motifs seemed highly appropriate. 









Made from a delicate Cotton Lawn, with specially designed embroideries, 
hand appliqued into place, and with cotton lace insertions.


Bonnet with a fun scalloped brim.
