The skirt and the bodice can be single or two tone (contrasting color) like shown in drawing. Has 125" diameter at bottom of skirt. This can not be made wider at bottom, due to design. This is of the corded petticoat time period. Those that are starting usually wear a 2-3 bone hoop, till they can afford to buy or have the time to make a corded petticoat. (See hoop and corded petticoat). The dress has a choice of piping at the neck (the most common for the time), although if you wish we can make it with a small collar. It looks great with the crochet necktie or crochet cotton collar. It has straight sleeves and can have caps or made without caps. NOTE: If using homespun cotton or drapery material we do strongly suggest a dust ruffle on the end of your skirt. Trim:

The skirt can be gathered or pleated. Collar can be a crochet like the picture for an addition price or a straight band collar, piping or small Peter pan collar. Do not suggest this for large or extra large sizes, since it's pretty full in the front bodice part already. Note; This is the corded petticoat era, although some seem to start with the 4 bone hoop, before adding the expensive of a corded petticoat. Need to decide how you want to proceed in this area. So need to know the diameter, to fit it to what you wear underneath.

The bodice/ top is very full with a gathered full curved bottom. Light lace trim around neck. There are 2 rows of satin ribbon on the edge of all the ruffles. Unseen in the picture, the dress seems to have detachable sleeves which are shown in the below pictures to take on and off when desired. The skirt is with 4 flounces sewn over a (under) skirt under the ruffles. This dress needs to be called on, for material availability. Could look very pretty in a Swiss miss with contrasting ribbon. Could also be made with no ribbon edge or replaced with lace edge. Also could be 3 flounces instead of four. NOTE; This is the corded petticoat era, although some seem to start with the 4 bone hoop, before adding the expensive of a corded petticoat. Need to decide how you want to proceed in this area.

| Our reproduction items are more than just looks-like, they are authentic replicas made as closely as possible to the original
item. They are carefully manufactured using materials that match as closely as possible to the original items. We use patterns made from original items; patterns
that are modified to be historical not only in look, but construction; or patterns that we have made from drawings, pictures or paintings. Many of our items have
been purchased by museums (well known and not so well known) for display and/or for use by docents and historical interpreters.

Other Items (accessories, accouterments, camp equipment, leathergoods, tents, tinware, etc.) are mostly purchased from other makers, although some are made by us.
