Handmade Checkered Patchwork Embroidered "Good Luck" Dress with Tie Straps
Handmade Checkered Patchwork Embroidered "Good Luck" Dress with Tie Straps
This dress was made from vintage embroidered "Good Luck" days of the week tea towels. It features an elastic bust line and tie straps to fit a variety of sizes
Color Scheme: White and Ivory with multicolored embroidery
Approx Age: the tea towels appear to be hand embroidered so I would say 1940s-1950s, and the white pieces possibly 10-15 years old, handmade recently
Fabric: no tags, but I would say the embroidered pieces are a gauze woven cotton, I would say the white pieces are cotton muslin
Condition: Very Good wearable condition, the elastic is super stretchy, and the ties work great, please note there were a few holes that I have stitched up and there's some light spotting from its previous life
Bust: stretches 30 inches to 48 inches around
Waist: up to 88 inches around
Hips: up to 88 inches around
Length: 43 inches from top to bottom, does not include the tie strap length
