I took a couple of pictures of finished items this morning.

First the evening bodice laid flat on the bed because it doesn't even remotely fit on the dummy, and I didn't care to put on stays and a dress.

Regency Evening Bodice

I used ideas from a couple of fashion plates, particularly this one held by the Museum of London


and this one, though I'm not sure where it comes from


Second the petticoat, which does fit on the dummy reasonably well.

Regency Petticoat - Front

Tan Wool Petticoat - Back

The construction for it is based on a riding habit in Patterns of Fashion. It has pocket slits and hooks and eyelets on the left, but the right side is sewn to the little bodice.
