A couple weeks ago,
I wrote about my smocking experience
with my daughter's dress.
Well I decided to make something
for myself....
at least I know I will wear it....
or at least feel terrible if I do not!
So here it is
A beautiful smocked night gown.
I used the pattern
from "sew Beautiful" magazine,
number 118 (2008).
I basically followed the directions
and it went well.
I made a shorter version,
It is perfect for hot summer night!
The bullion flowers took some
Overall I am pleased with myself,
and I wear it proudly!
Happy smocking!
Hooray for pretty smocked nightgowns!

I just happened upon the photo of your nightgown and wanted to say Well Done! This is the first I have seen made of this design since the magazine came out. You did a beautiful job.
