Lady in a silk dress.






This dress was made by combining some pattern pieces from other dresses with the original tudor pattern. I also altered the the original tudor skirt so it does not have the split down the middle.
I found this material when i went on a spontaneous material shopping spree and found loads of shimmering colour changing fabrics. This dress has now become one of my favourites.

My very own GEORGIAN CORSET!!!!






Yaaayyy!!! Finally, ever sinse i was little i always wanted to try on one of these corsets, i just love the shape, and look at my BOOBS, it felt great wearing one, even if it was constricting abit.
Anyways, i found a pattern for one of these corsets, didnt take up much fabric and interfacing like most clothes but...it took 12 METRES OF BONING!!

After i finished it i tried it on and continued to do the housework in it, it was awesome!! my boyfriend ryan appreciated it alot too ;D

Another tudor dress, made from the original pattern, this one had alot more extensive beading in it, so it gave it that elizabethan look to it.

Regency Doll!







A new Period doll, this pattern was also taken from a original period pattern but was scaled down to a 1/6 of the size, this pattern was really easy to make.
Although the pattern for the hat had to be made from scratch.....but you learn something new everyday, and i really enjoyed playing with the ribbons...............i sound like a school report XD
