Robin Egg Dress Trimmings

I have found all the trimmings for the Robin Egg dress. The buttons aren’t as black as I would like but will do. The wider velvet ribbon will be the tie and the narrower will be the trim on the sleeve jockey. The collar was my first attempt at broderie anglaise and didn’t turn out too bad. The great thing about all of these is that I had them already except the buttons, which were very reasonable.
