She is naked no more! Lucie now has that most basic unit of Victorian lady’s clothing: a chemise. I was a bit disappointed with the design- I used a pattern from a Suasn Sirkis wish booklet (1870-75) and even without the insertion lace which I left off because I’m out of miniature-scale lace right now, it looks more like a 1970s babydoll nightgown than any 1870s chemise I’ve ever seenalso. warn a girl that your patterns don’t include seam allowances, okay? please?because it’s so simple, I embroidered a tiny L on the front for a bit of ornamentation. this is actually the best embroidery I’ve ever done, which tells you something about the dismal state of my embroidery skillsanyway. stay tuned for the endless thrill of…drawers!
