When I bought a bundle, several yards in total, of narrow silk at a recycle shop in Japan back in June, my first thought was that I could use this silk for something Regency. Now, this magenta and yellow slubby silk with a cross-hatch pattern really isn't historically accurate for the early 1800's in the western world. Among other things making the fabric rather historically inaccurate, Japan wasn't even opened for trade with the western world until 1853, 50 years after the era of the garment I wanted to make. So, yes, Japanese silk. The year 1801. Technically they don't work together. But did that stop me? No, and I don't regret it one bit! I brought home the silk with a vague idea in the back of my mind about what I wanted to make from it. I began by looking at Regency era fashion plates and extant garments online to see if I could find something close to the idea I had - and I did! (I can't seem to find a source for this beyond Pinterest, sorry!) Saved to one of my Pinterest boards I found this 1804 fashion plate. The yellow sleeveless spencer jacket thing was exactly what I had in my mind! Source A bit more Pinterest browsing brought me to the above 1801 fashion plate featuring a magenta version of a similar garment. I studied both fashion plates, paying close attention to how the "skirts" of the garments appeared to be laying in the depictions, and came up with a plan for how I would cut my garment from the narrow silk in my possession. For the bodice of the garment, I decided to adapt the drop-front gown bodice lining pattern from Patterns of Fashion 1, by Janet Arnold, which I'd used to make my Regency gown 3 years earlier. As I'd already altered these pattern pieces to fit me and used them successfully in a previous project, I decided to just skip the mock-up and go straight to cutting out the final garment. Amazingly, this worked out fine! First I cut the bodice lining from the same pink striped linen/cotton blend shirt I'd used to line my turban cap with. (The fabric from that old shirt is now completely used up!) As I wanted the front of this sleeve-less spencer jacket type thing to fasten right under my bust, I lowered the front neckline considerably. After I cut out the lining from the linen, I cut out the silk from the same pattern pieces. The bodice front pattern pieces were a bit too big to fit on my narrow silk, so I had to piece together the front pieces. No big deal - piecing together narrow fabric to cut out large pattern pieces is period accurate! I didn't use any pattern for the skirt section of the garment. I formulated a rough idea in my mind of how the skirt panels must be shaped based on how the skirts lay in the fashion plates, measured a couple things, then cut right into my silk. The back skirt is cut almost like a triangle with a half circle cut out at the waistline. The side seams are cut on the bias, at a 45 degree angle, to get those delightful "points" which I fell in love with in the fashion plates. The front skirt panels are cut as straight widths of fabric with no shaping except for the side seams, which are cut at a 45 degree angle for the points. On the finished garment I'm very pleased with how the back skirt turned out, but I do wish I'd patterned the front skirt differently and given it more shape. Oh well, it turned out well enough and I can't be bothered to change it now. I sewed together all the main pieces by machine, then took the garment with me to Uganda and finished up all the hand sewing on that trip. Before I left I pressed under 1/4" around all the edges of both the lining and the silk. While I was gone I slip stitched the edges together. Sewing away a layover on my way to Uganda. Once the bodice layers were sewn together, I attached the skirt. I'd sewn the skirt side seams prior to leaving with narrow machine-sewn french seams. I initially attached the skirt to the bodice with a whip stitch, then decided I didn't like how the skirt was laying that way. I went over the whip stitches with a running stitch, and am very pleased with the way the skirt lays after that! The skirt didn't require hemming as I'd cut the bottom edge on the selvage to save myself the bother. I did, however, have to narrowly hem the edges of the front opening. That went pretty quick. With the construction done, I moved on to the trimmings - tassels, made from silk thread, to attach to the points! I made the tassels and attached the tassels, and then, 3 nights into my trip to Uganda, the thing was done and wearable. If I'd realized how quick it would go together I would have hand sewn the entire thing on the trip rather than machine sewing the long seams before leaving! The one thing I didn't get done on my trip to Uganda was add some sort of fastening to the front overlap. I just couldn't find any buttons or anything I liked for this project! Thus, for the time being, I opted to skip the fastenings. I wore the newly finished garment safety pinned closed in the front to my sister's birthday party the day after I returned home from Uganda. It worked. Safety pins and all, I love how this thing turned out! It was just the thing to dress up my plain white regency gown! Fabric bought in Japan. Design based on French fashion plates. Sewn in Uganda. Worn in America. What is this thing actually? Is it a sleeveless spencer jacket with a skirt? A waistcoat? A short open robe? Well, according to the French description on the 1801 fashion plate, helpfully translated for me by a friend in the Saint Louis Georgian Sewing Society, the technical name is "A Tunic with Points". So there you go, this trans-continental garment is a Tunic with Points - and I love it!

Attending and participating in the Jane Austen Festival for the very first time, I've spent the last month fabric, notions and pattern shopping, planning and designing my dresses and accessories. I'm utterly exited!! Me being a new member of the JASNA Louisville chapter and having seen all those pretty people online attending last years festival in their regency get up, I'm determined to give it my all to show my appreciation for the beauty of the period and my admiration to Jane Austen. And of course..OOOH , what FUN it will be to dress up all pretty among other pretty dressed up ladies and gentlemen and immerse oneself a bit into regency life. So here they are; my regency long stays: Regency corded corset front They are made in 3 layers; 2 layers of cotton drill and 1 layer of 100% white cotton. The cording goes between the 2 cotton drill layers. The busk cover is made from eyelet lace, topped off with two hand stitched eyelets. Between the cording I let my trusty sewing machine do some decorative stitching. Between the underbust cording, as well as on the hip gussets I did some hand embroidering. I find it keeps me from munching in front of the TV at night. :) The sides have some cording as well, but after trying it on, I would recommend either doing MUCH more cording or adding at least one boning on each side. It IS fine and does a good job as is. But it would be more supportive with some more cording or boning. The pattern I used is the Mantua Maker regency corset and you can order it with or without the busk. I ordered the busk with the pattern. I also read that one can use one of those paint stirring wood slats as a busk. The kind they give you for free at the home depot. I'm not sure how sturdy they are ..but hey, if they are free you can get a few and try it out. :) The instructions were pretty easy to follow. There also is an excellent tutorial on how to make a regency corset by Sidney Eileen that got me started. Very step-by-step and in depth and hers turned out absolutely perfect doing it exactly that way, which gave me the courage to attempt this at all. But after sewing the whole corset - which honestly intimidated me at first- I have to say an intermediate sewer can whip this one up in about 8 hrs... (from cutting the fabric to fished lacing- provided you have absolutely no interruptions and can indulge in the sewing flow) ... using boning instead of cording and skipping the embroidery. It really is much less work than it looks. Once you start it just all falls into place and sooner than you thought you are holding your finished regency long stays. :) Corset front with cording, machine- and hand embroidery The three things I personally asked myself, after reading the Sidney Eileen's tutorial were: Question 1) How do I do the gussets an easier way?? The Gussets she showed looked easy enough but turned out to be all wonky when following her steps. I don't know HOW she got them to look so perfect using that method but I knew it was not for me. Question 2) What kind of cord should I use and how much of it do I need?? Question 3) How on earth DO I do the cording in a way that looks neat but doesn't make me hate the corset before it's even done?? The cording method shown looked like WAY too much work and a pain in the butt. She of course did a bang-up job with hers and created a beautiful piece. I have the utmost respect for her skills and workmanship!! Yet further searching and looking at all those gorgeous cording jobs I saw all over online, left me with more "but how.." thoughts to ponder over. SO... Answer to Question 1) My gusset question is actually answered on my Mantua Maker pattern(duh!!) . So engrossed and frustrated by the Gusset online tutorial, I neglected to look at the actual pattern instructions more closely. It only has drawings but they still helped me to easily do them right and get evenly sized and pucker free gussets. Here are some pictures to help with the pattern drawings: stay stitch around gusset marking left; cut marking, right; cut and ironed towards left side to stay open place gussets on the ironed-over edges and pin in place from right side turn over to right side, have pins in direction of sewing and top stitch in place- removing pins as you sew. Top-stitched and deco stitched. Top is trimmed and zig -aged Et voilà! Bust gusset done and onward.. Problem solved for Question 2 : I wanted the cording not to "bleed" into my corset when it is washed (like hemp cord does, frequently used for authenticity) ...and not to shrink and pucker my fabric (like with cotton cord or cream and sugar yarn)... so I opted for a white nylon cord. Knowing I needed a lot and since I didn't want to pay 1.99 a yard for measured notion cord - guessing I would buy about 10 yards that would have been $20 just for the cord! *where are my smelling salts* So I chose to buy a package of 2.2 mm nylon cord for window blinds. I found mine at Joanne's fabric for about $6.50. Plenty of cord on that little card board thingy for extra practice runs too. I still have some left over. 2.2 mm nylon cord for window blinds or shades (That's my left overs) And finally the solution to Question 3; The cording process Reading about it probably takes longer than doing it, so don't get discouraged Here is what I did; I call it "Zipper-foot-instant-cording". (Practice-pics on scraps ) 1. With your regular foot sew a straight line through two layers as long as you want your cording "channel" to be. 2. Open up the fabric and place your cord as close as you can against the previously stitched line/inner seam. Now change to your zipper foot for the following steps: 3.Close the fabric over the cord, so the cord is now sandwiched between the layers. Place your zipper foot as close as you can onto the top layer next to the cord. 4. Now stitch very close to the cord, inching your way down, stopping occasionally to feel-push the cord nice and tight against the first line of stitching. ...stitch very close to the cord, inching your way down... 5. At the end of your "channel" fold fabric up/over and cut the remaining cord off. Finished cording row. Adding more is a cinch- just repeat from step 2 above :) Check list so far: all pieces cut bust gussets done cording channel width established by doing a few practice cording rows on scrap fabric To make a cording pattern I placed a piece of paper on top of my front piece and traced the shape of it. When you design your cording pattern make sure to mark the busk pocket first and then let your imagination and sewing skills be your guide. Cording can be done vertically, horizontally and diagonally. It's up to your preference and skills but keep in mind that the cording has to be done in a certain order.(!!) Because once a cording channel is sewn, you can only open the fabric a certain way to make the rest of your cording. Also you want to make sure your cording does not end into another cording. You may however cross over ends. With that in mind the order becomes more clear. That means cord the parts first that will be crossed or joined by other lines! So mentally walk your way through first before you do any stitching. I realize it sounds VERY confusing. It becomes clearer when you do it. I will also show pictures on that and explain more with them. It's actually quite simple. Just the words fail me to make it sound simple. (This would be the time to excuse my English, it being my second language and German my mother tongue ) ..aaand moving on: I used the online cording patterns I found for inspiration and rough drafted this one: Next step is the transferring the cording pattern onto the top fabric layer of the front piece. Not an easy task considering it's thick cotton duck fabric. It's not really transparent. Quite the contrary! So, using a sunny window, I taped the paper pattern onto it. Holding my fabric piece over the paper and let the sunshine do the rest. In short; the bright sun light made it easier to see through the fabric and consequently to see and trace the pattern markings. Having learned from my mistake of stitching over pencil marks which seems to imbed them permanently into the fabric, I invested in a Mark-be-gone marker. Incredible thing! A drop of water and it just disappears. No scrubbing or washing. Just wetness. I'm very much liking it! :) After all that technical work I deserved some relaxing embroidery. I hadn't done any for decades!! Knowing that the swirls will be embroidered only onto the top layer and will not disturb the later cording, this was the perfect time to get it done. The embroidery of the swirls: I felt quite accomplished that day and put my work down. As I will now with this blog entree. Enough to digest for today. I will do the rest of the tutorial in mostly captioned pictures, so it doesn't feel so long winded. Thank you for bearing with me. Ciao for now, Darlings...

Ackermann's Repository was a popular British publication of the Regency period and its monthly issues were in distribution from January 1809 till its final issue on December 1828. Fortunately for us, Ackermann's Repository was published by a printing house that specialized in producing bound volumes intended for reference and private libraries. Had this just been a fashion magazine, I believe many of the amazing plates would have vanished over time; however since this publication was a literary, economic, political, architectural,as well as a fashion publication; the pages of Ackermann's was treated as a reference item and several full collections of these bound volumes still exist today. (In 1829 Ackermann's had a fashion only publication - "Ackermann's Repository of Fashion".) Ackermann's was know in its day as one of the premier print shops and produced many illustrated book series and lithographs during it's time. From the beginning "The Repository of Arts, Literature, Commerce, Manufactures, Fashions, and Politics" as it was formally called was intended to be bound into books even though it was available as a monthly magazine as well. This is why you see the odd numbering system on the illustrated plates. At the end of each year, that years issues were available as a 2 volume set and could be purchased in a variety of binding options directly from Ackermann's or from several of the other binding houses or book sellers in London. A subscriber also had the option of having their individual issues custom bound to order. It's just so interesting how things were done 200 years ago. 1823 was the start of Series 3 When these were later bound into their 2 volume sets. Jan - Jun 1823 were part of Series 3 Volume 1 July - Dec 1823 were part of Series 3 Volume 2 1823 would have volumes 3&4 1824 would have volumes 5&6 and so on and so forth till the series was completed At the end of the 20 years of Ackermann's Repository there were 40 bound book volumes. According to the information I've found up to 1,000 bound volumes of Ackermann's Repository were sold per year. I've yet to find a number of how many issues of each magazine were sold per month; however it must have been a lucrative venture for it to have been published in both formats for a twenty year period of time. My pick of the 1823 Ackermann's Repository Fashions I have been posting all the lovely fashion plates from the pages of Ackermann's and continue now with Series 3 which ran from January 1823 - December 1828. These fashion would be considered late Regency and can be most easily identified by the more form fitting bodices, dropping waistlines and fuller skirt bottoms. Today I will be posting the fashions for 1823 and I hope you enjoy seeing them. This is what the cover page for Series 3 Vol 1 (Jan - June) 1823 looked like in the bound book form Ackermann's Repository 1823 Fashion Plates 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 1 - January Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 1 - January Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 1 - February Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 1 - February Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 1 - March Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 1 - March Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 1 - April Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 1 - April Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 1 - May Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 1 - May Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 1 - June Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 1 - June Issue This is what the cover page for Series 3 Vol 2 (July - Dec) 1823 looked like in the bound book form 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 2 - July Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 2 - July Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 2 - August Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 2 - August Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 2 - September Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 2 - September Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 2 - October Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 2 - October Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 2 - November Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 2 - November Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 2 - December Issue 1823 - Ackermann's Repository Series 3 Vol 2 - December Issue ************* For those of you who want a bit more than to see the pretty fashions; here are the fashion descriptions from the November 1823 issue. I though I'd show this one since it included descriptions of the fashion plate showing hats. You will notice I left the pages intact and did not crop out the extra bits from the previous article that precedes the fashion articles; nor did I remove the beginning of the article that followed the fashions. This is so you can see how the articles ran one into the other and how they can jump from one topic to the next without the two being related. Here we have on page 305 the ending of a technology article followed by fashion then one about a new illustrated literary book soon to be available for sale by Ackermann's. Here at the bottom of the November fashions article we see an subtle advertisement for the new release of Ackermann's annual "The Forget Me Not". "The Forget Me Not" was another well known publication by Ackermann's. This "Literary Annual" was published around November of every year (just in time for the Christmas gift giving season) from 1822-1847 and targeted mainly the female marked. This new style of "annual" contained 12 engravings to represent each of the months and stories or poems to accompany each. It also contained a review of the previous year, the recent census, a family tree of the monarchy of Britain and a list of sovereign families and ambassadors for other kingdoms. This would have been a very safe gift for a gentleman to present a lady and in some years it sold up to 20,000 copies. It is believed that the bound version of Ackermann's only sold upwards to 1,000 copies per year; so this shows how popular "The Forget Me Not" was. ************* I hope you have enjoyed another trip through the Regency Fashions of Ackermann's Repository and that you join me again when I post the fashions for 1824. For your convenience here are some quick links to the earlier Regency fashions I've posted on my blog.

Today our Regency time travels for fashion will take us to the year 1824 and oh what an assortment of fashions we have for this year. The trends continue with the lowering and snugger form-fitting bodice and fuller skirt bottoms as we have seen for the past few years. Then is October we see see two mourning fashions; however this time it is not due to a death in the British Royal Family but for the French King Louise XVIII. I found it interesting that the British Court was ordered to go into a short period of mourning for the French king and that many in the British higher ranks were expected to follow along. I will post the fashion article showing this mandate after posting all the fashion plates, so I hope you take a look at it as well. This is my pick of the 1824 Ackermann's Repository Fashion Plates As always, it is difficult for me to choose my pick of the fashions for any one year. I was drawn to this fashion plate due to the interesting composition. Not only is the dress and ladies face charming but the scene in itself was too unusual to be passed over. I hope you have fun looking at and choosing a favorite of your own. Enjoy!
