Hand-embroidered christening dress cutter, c.1850

Some of the best work of the needle arts was lavished on garments for infants. This was once a fine infant's dress with charming hand embroidery on the bodice and skirt border. While the skirt is too damaged for mending, the embroidered parts are still intact and can be recycled in your creative project.

The condition is fair.

The empire waistband is 19" by 3/4". The hem border is 66" by 7" including the tucks.
