The Mabel Quilt Top Dress
DESCRIPTIONThe Mabel dress is constructed out of a 1940s/50s cotton quilt top that features hundreds of vivid prints. Like the others, it has two hip pockets, thin spaghetti straps, and an adjustable tie in the back. Made in Athens, GA by professional seamstress, Shawna Lea Maranville. The quilt top is in excellent condition - has a few small faint discolorations here & there common with age, but nothing that is highly visible. Dress has been laundered and is ready to wear.
This is the largest of the three dresses, and was constructed using a size 12 pattern. It can be worn loose on someone smaller, or the tie can be adjusted for someone above a size 12. The dress form is a size small and I wear a size M/L.
Measurements: 37” around upper bust (aka top band) when tied tightest, but can accommodate up to 42” upper bust. Measures 41” length from top of bust band (so not including strap length).
DETAILS100% cotton. Unlined.
Made from antique materials sourced by Iron Pony
Hand wash gently and hang dry
