Will have to pick a less complicated era for August...I've only got two weeks left...
I love making frocks, from both historical and more recent fashion eras. By no means do I aim for historical accuracy, I just aim for the finished product looking awesome and being as comfortable as possible. Come and join me on my awesome dressmaking adventures.

July: Regency-ish, not-quite Victorian
Yes, it's two weeks late, but better late then never, right? Here is my late-Regency/early-Victorian mish-mosh of a dress. As mentioned previously, it's from Butterick 5832, although I took some liberties with it. Love how the match of the contrast fabric worked, and I also refined my piping-construction skills. I have enough of this material to make another dress too. Love when that happens, means you're not putting all your creative eggs in one basket.
