Hello Ladies!
This is one of my favorite dresses I've ever made - a lacy Edwardian tea gown! I concocted this feminine gown from the 1910s Tea Gown pattern at www.sensibility.com .
Believe it or not, the entire project was made from my stash except for the ribbon and plum colored sash.
The ivory silk shantung (which sold for $30 a yard), was leftover from a wedding dress project that a bride bequeathed to me, and the netting overlay was an exquisite curtain panel!
I was so thrilled to wear the dress, and I had it photographed in the most exquisite mansion you've ever seen.
You can read all about the project here, with lots more photos! http://www.edelweisspatterns.com/blog/?p=1465
Hope you enjoy the pictures!
