Looking at pictures of Edwardian era fashion, especially undergarments and children’s clothing, you’ll see where the inspiration for heirloom sewing comes from. Heirloom sewing regained popularity within the sewing community when fashion trends in the late 1970’s and 1980s were inspired by the Victorian and Edwardian eras. (Google Gunne Sax dresses.) Smocking was also a trend in the 70s and 80s; although, smocking wasn’t especially popular in the Victorian/Edwardian era. Today, you’ll often see heirloom sewing and smocking in the same sentence when describing classic sewing styles.
