That's gorgeous! I love it. I wish it had the slightly earlier skirt on it. I don't like the skirts as much from the late teens on.

That IS fabulous! I may need to make one too. Although I may change the colors around a bit just to be a bit different.

Let's each grab our bows and shoot some Regency archery together!

I'm not sure I will find that kind of fabric, and I am not going to use peach, it will be pink if I choose a similar colour combination.
But it is gorgeous!

Your idea of tasteful is very, very strange...

Oh, I don't think it's tasteful, I think it's hilarious.

I love it! Unfortunately, it's about 15 years too early for what I'm thinking about right now - 1836 to 1845 Texas. :)

That's fab! Are you getting, by the way, the significance of the fact its Lincoln green? (At least, that's a significant colour now, and I assume it was then)

I never knew exactly what shade of green was Lincoln green. But if this is Lincoln green, then I do.

Wow. I want one, too. And I would wear it while shooting! :)

I always wondered what Lincoln green was!
Actually, I found an online swatch here. The dress looks a bit more olivey, though, but you can never trust colour representation on a photograph and a computer screen... and I suppose it may also have faded a bit.

I should have read the description and then I would have known that it was Lincoln green. I like that it's from a worsted/mohair mix. I won't find that exact mix, but it means that I can use wool, which really is my favourite material.
