Thanks everyone for the comments on the regency gown. I expected the
sheer embroidered fabric to be a pain to sew but it was surprisingly
easy--a new, tiny, sharp needle probably helped. I'll consider adding
the satin to more than just the sleeves.
Next up: this one!

That's a lovely dress. The sheer fabric on top looks a lot like some fabric
I used for part of an Easter dress for my daughter, but the flowers were
white on white. It was awful to sew! I hope yours was better.
