Winter Whites
Fresh fallen like new snow on a winter’s day. Snowy white antique fabric choices for winter frocks…
Crisp white dresses full of marvelous details aren’t just for summer. They are equally charming in the winter, especially around the holidays!
Creamy white with a ruffle bordered with lace insertion
Snowy winter woods…
Rows upon rows of tucks with an eyelet hemline.
A simple white wool with hand embroidered hemline.
Sheer white cotton with multiple rows of lace insertion.
Tucks and wide broderie anglaise, on a large enough scale that one or the other would have to be chosen as the decorative element on the skirt of a dress
White!

Two little Ismays, looking centuries old… I love them at this stage ❤

The sharp scent of pine in the air.
The reds and greens of our Christmas landscape…
The tobacco barn, 240+ winters…
