Antique Christening Dress

Years ago, I bought this from a shop in Ulverstone. It was hand made about 1900c and is still in great condition, apart from one small repair. Now and then I'll get it out and wash it because it seems to attract dust etc. It's about 1m long and really tiny. I love all those little tucks and all that light cotton broderie lace.
