In the ye oldey-timey days, Nicole and I were able to drape, cut, fit, and hand sew an 18th-century gown in a single working day (our fastest make was less than 8 hours), and, for reasons I still don't understand, I decided that it would be *fun* for us to make a regency dress in a day. For me. Cause. Reasons.

I'm not saying it was a good idea. I'm just saying I had the idea.

I also don't really know why @NicoleRudolph even agreed to this idea. Maybe because she wanted me to owe her for the rest of my life??

(I'm sorry Nicole...)

ANYWAYS. So. we did it. We hand sewed a c. 1812 dress in a single day, from 7:30 am to 10:00 pm. Bless Regency dresses and their simple construction and easy fitting. We were also extremely lucky that this cotton batiste fabric was lovely to work with.

The hand stitches we used were: Running stitch, hem/fell stitch and a spaced backstitch/top/prick stitch. That's it. Nothing complicated or over the top, just really easy stitching that is fast too.

So if you've ever wondered to yourself it is possible to hand sew 18th century or early 19th-century dresses in a day, by hand, this video will answer that question for you. As an added bonus: You get to weigh in on the Great Salt Debate(TM), or The Saltening of 2021. 😂
