Home Living has been running numerous posts on her dress making projects all of which are inspired by classic Victorian and Edwardian paintings. Even if you don't sew, it's beautiful to just look at the pairing of paintings and dresses in her posts. If you do sew, these dresses are very affordable. She has done a lovely job at creating romantic days-gone-by inspired dresses on a budget.
I'd look like a stuffed sausage in these dresses, but she's slender, and they suit her figure in a modest way. Many of the dresses are remiscent of Laura Ashley and Gunnie Sax dresses of the 1980's.
About Me
- Alexandra
- A homeschooling mother of one teenager and a little. In 2001, I resigned from my 13 year position as a case manager to homeschool my oldest who was a preschooler at the time, and later a daughter who came along in 2005. This is by far the hardest job I've ever loved. My husband of nearly 20 years supports us as a fire fighter and EMT.

Hi, Alexandra! I'm back to visiting again. My son is still sick, though.
Hey, yeah, do you remember Gunnie Sax? I use to love those dresses. Don't see them around anymore.
Love Lady Lydia's blog, too.
:)
