Green Tudor/Henrician Gown Finished!

[centuriessewing]

Here is a run down of all the layers.

Cotton/linen smock: Machine sewn with hand finished seams and hems.
Cuffs: Machine “blackwork” with silk thread, hand hemmed, they lace on to the smock cuffs with fingerloop braid so I can change them out as needed and wash them separately.
Rust red petticoat: Same one I wear with all my clothing.

Love that rust/ cinnabar color with the green. Brown trimming looks fantastic as well. I enjoyed the writeup! Thanks!
