More Underpinnings

[atherleisure]

I'm continuing to work on my 1880's underpinnings. The corset cover and bustled petticoat are finished. Now I just have a couple more petticoats to make, and I'll be finished. That's the worst part about a new era - miles and miles of whites.

I chose to make a petticoat with steels instead of an independent bustle since I knew I needed about three petticoats anyway. This killed two birds with one stone.





The patterns for both are from Bustle Era Fashions. Both ended up too big. I took inches out of each because they weren't even close. Now I'm wondering how the bodice pattern I drafted will do since I used the same rule as I did for the corset cover.
