Hi! Here are the closeups of the little dresses in my photos. The crochet dress I purchased because it reminded me of a dress my mother made for me when I was a child. The other dresses remind me of the dresses I put on my daughter in the early 60s. Thanks for the interest.
The smoking on this dress is beautiful.

Oh my goodness! These are just the most darling dresses! Look at all the beautiful hand work!! Thanks for showing them up close. I would love to see a little girl dressed up in them. Do children dress like this anymore?

Those are adorable!!! My little Olivia would look adorable in those! I do have the dress that my mom brought me home from the hospital in. I thought about giving it to my daughter for Olivia, but found that the fabric is just way too thin now.

Yes, ironing can be the problem.
I did, over Christmas find a shop that sold little dresses like those. They cost an arm and leg, but I got lucky and found a really cute one on sale for 1/3 of the price. Bought it up, now just have to wait for the little girl to grow a bit.
