The past few week have been very busy ones for me. For those who have been following my blog, I'm happy to announce we are having a little girl! With two very active boys it fun knowing that I'll have someone to share my love of sewing.

There has been a lot of sewing going on over here. I've had a number of custom orders to fill, in addition to creating (or redrafting) a new line of dresses for my Etsy Store Victorian Times.



The pink dress is one of my new creations. It's a ready made dress that I will be offering as a custom order soon.




Here is the back of the dress.






And below is a close up of the fabric.






These Black Victorian Style Wrist Warmer Cuffs are perfect for keeping you in style and warm!

During the Victorian Era detachable cuffs served several purposes. They protected the sleeves of nice day dresses, gave the dress a little flare and kept the wrist warm.

This is my version of the Victorian Era cuff. It was a lot of fun to make and I hope to be adding some more fun things to my line of Victorian Era Inspired clothing soon.

Your work is so awesome! On a related note, I have a friend who has 16 issues (all 4 years) of a magazine called Lady's Gallery. It is no longer in print and she wants to give them to someone who would use them for research, etc... It deals with couture, fashion, etc... from vintage eras Would you be interested in them?
