Elegant Lady's Closet ePattern
The Elegant Lady’s Closet ePattern has something for everyone! I took some designs I’d played around with years ago and turned them into a “mega pattern.” All of the pieces are totally correct for the time period (ideal for 1790s-1805) and can be mixed and matched to create an entire wardrobe of gowns! You’ll be able to create day gowns, half-robes, visiting gowns, and evening gowns with ease. Best of all, this pattern is ideal for expectant and nursing mothers, since the drawstring gown accommodates a tummy, and both gowns are nursing-friendly!

This pattern is rated intermediate, but I’ve had beginners make gowns with minimal assistance from an experienced seamstress.
