1884 Plaid Day Dress with Antique Lace

Patterns:
Truly Victorian #460 for the Bodice;
Truly Victorian #423 for the Sleeves;

Truly Victorian #365 for the Overskirt.

Fabrics: The plaid fabric is a high-thread count cotton flannel, the sort used for men's shirts. It is lighter than the cotton flannel one usually sees in baby blankets, and the weave it much more intricate (a lot of asymmetrical weaves in the larger stripes). The green fabric is a simple homespun cotton in pine green. The bodice lining is emerald green satin. The eyelet lace on the cuffs and collar are antique pieces I salvaged.
