Satin stitch appliqué is the patient way to do it: each piece of fabric held in place by a dense row of embroidery thread worked tightly around the edge, which is what keeps the motifs secure through many washes and still bright and cheerful today. A metal zip set into the centre back, a net petticoat sewn into the lining to hold the skirt out, dotted bows at the chest. This is a dress made with the full understanding that a child's good dress should be capable of being handed down, and it has been, and it still has something to give.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"caitiedid","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44084144930950,"sku":null,"price":105.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0657\/5960\/8966\/files\/DSC_2763.jpg?v=1782173117","url":"https:\/\/checkout.caitiedid.shop\/products\/vintage-pink-applique-baby-dress-tulips-and-fish-net-petticoat-skirt-be-bes","provider":"caitiedid","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
