When I spotted this fabric well over a year ago at an estate sale, right away I knew that it would be perfect made in a Regency dress. On the selvages it says that it's from London, so "it was just destined to be" as the saying goes. :)
Using my favorite standby of the Elegant Ladies Closest pattern from Sense & Sensibility, it only took two days to complete. That said, I obviously didn't sew this one by hand, but it went together nicely.

Lovely dress! The fabric is a great color for the Regency style. I hope you will post photos of the swing era dress you are sewing too. : ) I love the style.
Sarah, I'd be happy to oblige your request for pictures once I sew it up. Yesterday I spent my allotted "sewing time" on cutting out a white 1914 dress. ;)
