DE 411   Baby Blossoms

This pattern will fit 22" baby dolls on cloth bodies. Sample doll shown on cover is "Kitten", an original sculpture by Connie Walser Derek. This pattern includes two separate outfits.

View A features a heavenly dress created from Swiss cotton organdy. A square bib collar is accented with rows of embroidered trim and lace, and edged in self fabric ruffles. Sleeves are full and puffed, capped with self fabric ruffles. Skirt is full and ends in a gathered ruffle. All ruffles on sample shown are finished with satin stitching on edges, but may also be narrow hemmed if desired. A ribbon sash trims the waist. The bonnet is a darling addition, with embroidered trim accents, and gathered satin edged ruffles framing the face. Matching panties are included.

View B is a cute one piece jumpsuit. Bodice is trimmed with both self fabric and wide lace ruffles, and is edged with a heavy flat embroidered trim outlining the center bodice. Collar is made from lace and satin edged. Sleeves are very full and gathered just below the elbow. Pant legs are also full and gather at the knee. Legs and sleeves are edged with lace. This design is lovely made up in a pale pastel "watercolor" print of cotton or cotton/poly.
