1910s Tea Gown for a Special Trip

I came across this pretty blush silk on clearance at a local fabric store and bought it, not sure what I wanted to do with it until my husband and I decided to take a cruise to celebrate our 15th anniversary. Immediately, I decided to make a tea gown for one of the two formal nights. I headed in to find lace and lucked out on the last bit of a bolt that was just enough for this gown.I felt very feminine and lady-like in this dress and recieved several compliments during the formal evening. It's become one of my favorite dresses for 'dress-up' events. Thank you for such a lovely pattern!Karen

Lovely, lovely work, Karen! I love your fabric and color choices. You look queenly!
