Spechler-Vogel's Swiss pima "petticoat quality batiste" is neither as sheer nor as expensive as their Nelona. However, it has a wonderful soft hand, drapes beautifully, and smocks and sews like a dream. The fabric is ideal for nightgowns, camisoles, infant clothing such as daygowns and diaper sets, and slips. Lighter than lawn fabrics, Swiss "petticoat batiste" is also an excellent choice for those who want a christening gown which is more opaque than or lacks the sheen of other Swiss batistes.
