Bodice Done
Feb. 17th, 2014 04:09 pmThis week's report is to say that I've made up the bodice and hood of a Regency pelisse. The skirt is in one piece too but not yet hemmed or had the gathering threads run through it. The sleeves still need to be cut.


It's based on a fashion plate from Costume Parisien in 1809. Mine won't be trimmed in ermine, though.
My 1907 sweater is moving along too. I'm nearly two-fifths of the way through the second sleeve.
