[QUOTE="yourturntoloveit, post: 128020, member: 57"][U]Silverthwait[/U], that sounds like such a pretty outfit. I just looked on-line and found a "Dorothy Dainty" book. Yes, that style of a young female child's dress was still "in style" (at least around here) when my aunt was making my dresses. She made my rough-and-tumble play clothes out of much sturdier fabric (my aunt and uncle raised chickens, so there was always a ready supply of feed-sack material). Do you remember wearing crinoline slips/petticoats under your full-skirted "Sunday" dresses when you were young along with the ever-present white lace-trimmed socks with white shoes in the spring/summer and black patent leather shoes in the fall/winter? :happy:[/QUOTE]
