I first cut out the pieces for this dress over a year ago. And then I did nothing with them. But when Stephanie proposed a Williamsburg trip, I figured it was time to sew this up.
It’s nearly finished now (which is good, because I need it this Saturday); I just have to finish some interior seams. Everything is hand sewn except the long skirt seams.
I still dragged my feet on sewing, even after I had committed to finishing it. Less than two weeks ago, I only had some of the bodice together.
After the bodice had been constructed, lined, and boning placed in the center front
And then there were sleeves.
Skirt pleated and attached. This was a pain to get to lay flat, but after a couple tries I got it.
Trimming.
First try-on, when I had only trimmed one sleeve so far.
In the Long Run 
I like that shade of yellow! It looks quite nice on you. May I ask what pattern you used, or did you draft it yourself?
Thank you! Several years ago I started from the Period Impressions Polonaise pattern for the first Anglaise gown I made, but by now it’s pretty different from that original pattern.
Thank you for the information! I like how the bodice isn’t too many pieces. =) I will look into that pattern.
You are welcome!
