Key Product Features

In morning’s soft mist where the finches take flight,
A dress holds their song in the pale dawning light.
With pincord so soft, in a shade of blue sky,
And ruby red piping to delight the eye.
On a collar, bright white, with frills soft and sweet,
Perch two cross-stitched finches, on each side they meet.

This misty blue pincord dress with an oversized white collar trimmed in bright crimson piping, and delicate cross-stitched finches, is a sure to become treasured heirloom piece — ideal for the most special days of your little ones lives.
