My First Victorian Piece

Work in Progress....















This will be my first Victorian piece. It is a chemise and drawers. I chose it because it is simple and will get me started in the historical patterns. This pattern is Truly Victorian #102. This one is going to take a bit of time as it has lace and some embellishments that are not in the pattern. I have to first figure out what I want to do, buy the needed lace and notions then figure out how to sew them on.

Basic pieces of the chemise:













Here is the first part sewn. Its the basic chemise without the sleeves and trimmings.














More to come....
