Wishing

I wish TV or someone would publish a pattern for the pretty turn of the century pouter pigeon gowns. I have the Janet Arnold, of course, but I need directions. Ageless Patterns and Patterns of Time don't have anything like this, either.

I'd love that!! Basically, I'm trying to make an off the shoulder evening bodice with some oyster satin overlaid with black net lace.



The skirt is about half way done and now I'm pondering the bodice.

Ooo just lovely! I'll dig out arnold to brush up since it's been a year since I was in that era. That will look very stunning when it's finished!
