Christening Robe 5

From E.W. Thomson collection
Bodice has been renewed sometime - applied with 4-sided pin-stitch. The panel has been replaced without the wings. Collar remade higher with an added scalloped edging with seeding. Sleeves altered from cap sleeves to below elbow. The previous caps and frills used as cuffs.
Variety of fine fillings - one drawn thread, some spider's webs. Skirt panel: trailing starts quite low but is well designed and finely executed. Leaves and wheatears, flowers outlined by small eyelets. Scalloped edge, pointed. Good condition. Fillings - as bodice.
