[h-cost] Victorian Underpinnings

[Angelique Carlson]

This topic is really interesting. My great grandmother,  post Victorian and a 
very conservative dresser, wore a red winter petticoat. I believe it was 
flannel. When I was young I though that it was amazing and wanted one of my 
own. I wonder how ideas and colors of underpinnings have changed.

Grandmother was a tee totaling Methodist and not wild in the least. She did 
bake an excellent sugar cream pie and smelled like Lavendar.

[h-cost] Converting a Sack Style Men's Dress Coat to a Frock Style Men's Dress Coat

[Angelique Carlson]

My son loves frock style coats and I'd love to make him one for Winter. Wool 
coating is fairly expensive, and I am hoping that it would be possible to alter 
a sack style coat from a nearby thrift store. Do you think it's possible?

Thanks in advance,
Angelique

[h-cost] Uniquely You.

[Angelique Carlson]

I have a Uniquely You from Atlanta Sew and Vac and it's great. The cover was a 
PITA to fit, but I am very satisfied with the finished product. In the 
instructions it mentions that the form is 30-50 percent larger, but that gave 
"Betty" Squishability. I wouldn't want to draft a form, I likenpatterns and 
alterations. I hope this helps,
Angelique

[h-cost] Saques

[Angelique Carlson]

Disclaimer- I am not a costuming expert, I just like clothes and lurk here.
I wonder if they might be for women who are breastfeeding? You could have 
access quickly, which was necessary for me, and also modesty. What do you think?
