Thanks for reminding me to enter the giveaway :D I'd have to say an 1860s silk taffeta ball gown...with complete "best" underpinnings (so silk dancing slippers, all Pima petticoats with real broderie anglais insertions and tucks, a new corset, and a Needle & Thread cage).<br />-Michaela "The Farming Daughter"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826523163416967557.post-41660641750141721732016-08-02T13:12:45.375-04:002016-08-02T13:12:45.375-04:00I love the housewife; I think I may need to make o...I love the housewife; I think I may need to make one (or a couple!)<br /><br />Let's see....my dream project would be to recreate a 1860's fashion plate with all the hard-to-find weaves of silk readily available that they used. Hard to choose, but I love fashion plates! The recreations are not budget friendly, though. So actually, even if budget was not a constraint, it would make me happier to include that for a dream project I bought everything for dirt cheap, rather than free. Which seems ridiculous, but that's me.Michaelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06892233238987056062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826523163416967557.post-749922231291098682016-08-01T21:07:44.314-04:002016-08-01T21:07:44.314-04:00My dream sewing project would be to finish up a 50...My dream sewing project would be to finish up a 50s dress made from a vintage pattern that evokes Betty's green velvet dress from the film White Christmas.

I shared on Facebook and on my blog: http://fabricoftime.blogspot.com/2016/08/share-post-young-sewphisticate-sewing.html<br /><br />My dream sewing project---there are so many! Where do I begin?! I want to make a pre-contact North American or South American indigenous costume, because I'm extremely intrigued by clothing anthropology. It's really hard to research, but I know there was a type of cotton native to South and Central America that some groups cultivated and wove into fabric and made clothing. I believe it was imported to what is now the American Southwest, where the Navajo utilized advanced textile technology that other cultures had not yet developed. So, I would make a pre- 1500's Navajo cloth which was not cut and sewn but wrapped around the body as clothing. Lots of research and specialized weaving training are required, which I may never achieve, but it's a dream anyway.esoraleak; Kaelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01112891513306725874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826523163416967557.post-85130561914330047982016-08-01T08:31:03.023-04:002016-08-01T08:31:03.023-04:00*Currently* my dream project is a late 1870's,...*Currently* my dream project is a late 1870's, early 1880's bustle dress. I used to hate bustles with a passion, but now I adore them! It would probably be made of silk and include lots of pleats, poufs, and some bows. =)<br /><br />I shared this on my FB page, and tagged you in it!Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05094522949598302175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826523163416967557.post-14107736225353713802016-07-31T14:01:36.639-04:002016-07-31T14:01:36.639-04:00My dream costuming goals are an Irish Crochet turn...My dream costuming goals are an Irish Crochet turn of the century gown or full on romantic poet getup with a partly velvet frockcoat and a slightly ludicrous waistcoat.Arihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06351106516439993207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826523163416967557.post-37876611891921986072016-07-30T23:25:55.049-04:002016-07-30T23:25:55.049-04:00Also shared on my blog: http://dollycreates.blogsp...Also shared on my blog: http://dollycreates.blogspot.com/2016/07/the-young-sewphisticate-blogiversary.html<br />Thank you! :)Estherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15235395280071814298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826523163416967557.post-26037333333482174372016-07-30T23:14:00.401-04:002016-07-30T23:14:00.401-04:00Oh goodness.....make that *18th* century.

The housewife is lovely - what a perfect prize for historical seamstresses!! <br />My dream project is an 8th century quilted petticoat (in red, naturally), with a gorgeous viny-print caraco jacket atop it. An 1860s sheer dress with ruffles and pagoda sleeves takes close second place though!! ;)<br />Thank you so much for the giveaway!!
