Machine Embroidery Design for 1793 Trailing Florals Fichu

Description

This listing is for a machine embroidery design for a trailing vine and flowers set above a scalloped edge. This design would be suitable for Regency gowns, as well as fichus or aprons suitable for the late 18th and early 19th centuries. This piece is based on a fichu in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, dated circa 1793.  Accession #2009.300.5913. The original can be seen in the second image, on the dress form.*

This design includes 3 pieces: a straight border section, one large corner with a symmetrical design for creating the back corner of a fichu, and a small corner for creating square designs like an apron. There is a color stop between the scallops and floral design so that you can choose to isolate these sections and skip them or stitch them in different colors, as you prefer.

Samples have been stitched in fine cotton embroidery thread on fine cotton voile.

We make every effort to ensure that our machine embroidery designs evoke period hand embroidery techniques, and are well-researched so you can use them with confidence on your historical costuming projects. They may copy the wobbles or slight flaws in an original design, to help keep them from looking too perfect and modern. They may contain details that you are not used to seeing in modern machine embroidery designs, such as more color changes or jump stitches between areas. All our files are accompanied by a detailed description of the original design as well as stitching instructions and thread recommendations so you can get the most out of these designs.

Hoop size: This design will fit in 5″x7″ hoops, if pieces B1 & B2 are used. Piece B is also provided whole to use in larger hoops.
