Victorian Petticoat

 

I just completed my first piece for the dress (not including the corset I had made a while back). The petticoat will go under the skirt and provide more volume and shape to the outfit. The extra room also makes it easy to insert a small pillow or bustle.
This is the first real clothing item I have ever sewn and i needed a lot of help with everything. It  is a good thing its underware though, considering all the near disasters I had putting it together Im not going to risk my final wedding pieces with these clumsy hands. I now officially turn this project over to Jillian. Heres looking to a finished dress by June (and the groom jacket and vest).
