I have a couple of items for sale.

First is a totally hand sewn bright blue wool mantle with handmade ruching around the edges. It's a light dress weight wool and the shoulder seams are piped. I made this over the summer and never wore it because I always wear the wool shawl my mother gave me.
$65 firm plus shipping.

I just finished this dress and am selling it because I really need holiday money. It's 100% cotton rustic weave in rust color. It has bishop sleeves, hook and eyes, the bodice is lined, piped in waist and back, and hand sewn hem facing. Any visible stitching was done by hand. The measurements are about 27" waist, 36" bust, and fit someone about 5'8 or a few inches taller. It's pictured over a 95" cage crinoline. The dress comes with the collar, but not the brooch.
$130 plus shipping.

Below are pictures of both items.

Thanks,
E.

Goodness that is beautiful! I only wish my wife was in the hobby.

Any chance you could make a dress for my daughter? She's 7. We live in Huntsville.
