[h-cost] dressed fashion plates
I got an interesting inquiry from a lady wanting to know about dressed fashion plates (Godey's plates or the like from the 19th century dressed in real fabrics, following the lines of the dresses pictured). Does anyone here know how early this was done? The earliest I am familiar with is the mid 20th century as a ladies home craft. I had a kids craft book in the 1970s with a dressed print project in it. -- Katy Bishop, Vintage Victorian katybisho...@gmail.comwww.VintageVictorian.com Custom reproduction gowns of the Victorian Era.

Re: [h-cost] dressed fashion plates
There are some in the family of Jane Austen--done by a niece, I think. One is pictured in the book, Jane Austen's Town and Country Style, by Susan Watkins. This one has the dress area cut out and the fabric put behind it.

Awwhhh...darn it! I wanted to pledge the 45 and get surprised with a book (to go with my copy of Alcega). Alas, the maximum donations in that category have already filled and I cannot swing the larger donations. Pooey! :( On Tue, Mar 4, 2014 at 1:28 PM, Marion McNealy m_mc_ne...@yahoo.com wrote: Katherine Barich and I have been working on a book for the last 6 months about 3 16th century Master Tailor's pattern books.

You may be in luck. There doesn't seem to be a limit on the $45 level now.
