Jen's Regency Ballgown & Pelisse
Jen's father-in-law gave her some heavenly fabric, and Jen created her breathtaking
. Then she made her cozy
for the winter months. Doesn't she look smashing? She writes,
I'm very pleased with how the Regency gown and coat that I made with your patterns turned out! For the gown I also made the bodiced petticoat from your instructions, which I think turned out really well. The gown is a lightweight silk that has a little bit of silver sheen, and the cream over-gown I made from fabric my father-in-law brought back from India as a gift (which was very sweet of him!) - I think it's cotton. Given the weather, I thought I'd make the most of the snow and made a warm raspberry-red wool coat/pelisse with black velvet trims (now I just need a bonnet - I am shockingly bare-headed in these photos ;-) ). Thank you again for making such clear, fun-to-use patterns!All the best,Jennifer
Lovely!
