Gretchen's Romantic Era Dress and Apron
Hi Jennie!I've enjoyed your patterns for seven or eight years now, but I've never been able to get my show and tell submissions to work (I'm not at all techie). I love the new site, and how easy everything is!Here are some pictures of the Romantic era outfit I made about five years ago. I dropped the waist on the actual dress, so it's not quite period, but left it high on the matching apron which is usually how I wear it. I LOVED learning how to do cartridge pleating! I've used it a lot since then as it's so practical and pretty. Great work on your patterns and inspiring site! I'm looking forward to the new Georgian dresses. :-)Gretchen P.
Aren't these photos enchanting? This is simply beautiful work, Gretchen! Thank you for sharing!
