Did you spend the holidays reading vintage French fashion magazines too?
Technically a trousseau is considered one's wedding dress and accoutrements, but I thought some vintage-y underwear for a three year old also kind of fit the bill. (I didn't want to name this post A POST ABOUT UNDERWEAR because I thought it would show up on creepy Google searches.)
I'm not sure it will ever get worn, but I had fun making it. That's the point, er, isn't it?
Linen with pintucks, buttons and pleats.
Pintucks perfect? No. Linen wrinkly? Yes.
After a long break, it felt good to be creative with my sewing machine again. I have a nightgown underway with more pleats.
Till next time, or as the French say whilst wearing their wrinkly French linen underwear, au revoir.

If I had underwear this cute I'd have to show it to someone, especially if I were three!
Absolutely adorable!!!! It is amazing, isn't it...how great it feels to get back to sewing if you can't do it for a while for whatever reason??? A couple of days not sewing and I am like a kid without a nap...nasty! :) Love the linen....so cute it could be worn anywhere, any time!!!! Cool and comfy looking...lucky little girl!!

I think it looks perfect and would love to make something like this for myself. No linen here though, it wrinkles too much and I don't take the time to iron. lol. Shelley
So cute! I love the ruffle at the bottom, not the stardard type of ruffle, like an open box pleat, love it, have to try it. I agree with shelleydf73, no linen, I hate to iron too! LOL
ooooh i'd love a set in my size..but it would take too long to make!!! lol
