19th Century Toddler's Outfit
Well, so, a friend told me she'd found a box in the attic with this long forgotten outfit. Her mom gave it to her more than a few years ago. She got no information from her mother about it. It's in pretty sad shape, so .... she thought I might want it. Hee, hee.
It's so hard for me to say to no to an antique gift! So I said yes. I think super fragile pieces like this still have value in the "study collection" realm, as examples of clothing construction techniques of the past.
