Kari's Regency Ballgowns
Hi Jennie, Last year my self and my family went to a Regency dance. I made all 3 dresses and open robes. I used the Elegant Lady’s Closet and the original Regency Gown pattern for my daughter’s dress. I used the Elegant Lady’s Closet to make the open robes with modifications. The dance was held
Natalie's Toddler Regency Dresses
I made two Regency dresses for my daughters to wear for my sister-in-law's wedding. They are 11 months, and 2 years old. Sizes one and 1 and 2 fit perfectly, though they are both on the small side. I used a 100% cotton from Wal-Mart. I made both dresses with the "drawstring" look. I really like how easy they were to put together and to get on and off. I also think the gathering across the bodice made the cotton a little dressier for a wedding.
Thank you!
Thank you so much for all the Kanga, dress, and necklace orders! We've now finished for this month, but I hope to send a new batch of Kangas home in the summer.

Tiny Girl's 1780s Dress
I found this lovely dotted voile in my "stash" and just knew it was perfect for the new 1780's Girls' Portrait Dress pattern. I love being able to switch out ribbons and sashes for new and fun looks on the same dress! Geneece A.

First, the toile dress is my recent version of the 17080s Girl's Portrait Dress pattern. Olivia is a good sport and enjoys all the new dresses her mum makes for her. She enjoys wearing her hats and is pleased
Big Sis/Little Sis Regency Dresses
After seeing Mama's Regency dresses, our little girls wanted one of their own. Our girls are not twins but they do love to dress alike, so we selected the matching seersucker fabric with contrasting colors.
