Description

More Mock Kirtles! Testing the pattern grading for the business.

One in green wool crepe, one in plaid pollycotton, one in gray polycotton drill. All blinged up to the nines!

All three gowns have fully lined bodices and sleeves, side seam pockets, and either stitched eyelets or hooks and eyes at the front. The sleeves are detachable, held in place with hooks and eyes under the epaulets.

These gowns are a part of a joint project with my sewing partner, Su.

    Love the fact you’ve “All blinged up to the nines” The trim on this is so lovely against the main fabric. That neckline is divine.

      Thank you. :) Need to do the 46" bust… Have done the 38, 40, 42, and 44. LARPers tend to be substantial.

    They are all lovely! My favourite part right away was the sleeves, though, and when I read that they were detachable too, I was completely smitten!

      You can also undo the buttons! Means that more of your shirt sleeve decoration can be seen… Just wait until my shirt is complete! or Su’s… Mine has lace inserts, hers is hand embroidered.
