Construction of the Regency gown
I'm using the Sense and Sensibility Elegant Lady's Wardrobe pattern. So I have the bodice constructed! Not sure it looks right, though! I know it will hopefully look different once attached to a skirt, but it looks so...square - even the shoulders look broad. Ah, well. I'm sure it will hang differently on me, right?
So here's the bodice so far. I hand sewed the neckline drawstring casing. I figured that would make the hand sewing fans around here pleased :) I even hand sewed part of the arm scye because it was being difficult.
Oh, and that crazy long drawstring tie will be shortened and tucked back to the inside where it belongs :)
