this is my Mum's dress in the backround she made it way back in the 50's I think !!!!!
When she passed away in 2005 I was given a box of her sewing things and this was in it ,now I will finish it and dream that I could be so small to wear it
The beading etc was all hand sewn ,I will take a picture of it and post it later
