This is a DIGITAL sewing pattern based on an extant dress from about 1840.

The dress is based on an extant day dress from the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, and dated from 1837 to 1840, made of a floral printed challis.
The dress features some typical details of the time period, like a wide and rounded neckline, contrasting piped seams and the wide sleeves pleated to fit round of the top of the arm and held in place by two piped bands of fabric, cut on the bias. At the wrist, the excess width of the over-length sleeve is gathered to fit a narrow cuff.
The fashion fabric of the bodice is mounted on a tight fitting lining bodice from a polished cotton fabric. The front panel from the fashion fabric is divided at the center front and stitched together again with a piped seam. The neckline is decorated with a ruffle, cut on the bias and the loose edge neatened with the same silk ribbon as used for the piping. The bodice closes at the center back with hooks and eyes.
The skirt is made from several widths of fabric. At the front and side portion of the bodice, the skirt is laid into regular knife pleats, the remaining width of the skirt is gathered to fit the smaller back portion of the bodice. If wanted, the gathering can be replaced by small, rolled pleats or cartridge pleating.

This dress should be worn with a matching corset and petticoat.

Beautiful bedspread
Color: Cream, Size: King, Color: Cream, Size: King
Exactly what I wanted. Color is right on. Lightweight but warm if you need some extra warmth. Pretty! Definitely order larger size. I have a queen bed and ordered the King. It's perfect for me.

Ok
Color: Dark Teal, Size: King
Looks pretty but not on my bed. It constantly looks messy. I don’t like the lack of neatness.

Couple Win
Color: Spa Blue, Size: King
The Amazon Basics Lightweight Soft King Size Comforter has been a wonderful purchase for our home! The comforter is incredibly soft, comes in beautiful colors, and is the perfect lightweight option for year-round use. My husband and I have very different sleep preferences—I tend to run hot while he’s always cold—but this comforter somehow works perfectly for both of us. It’s breathable enough that I stay comfortable while still providing enough warmth for him. We finally started sharing the same blanket again, which is a win in itself! Highly recommend for couples with different temperature preferences. 🛏️💕✨

Light Weight but Not Hot
Color: Dark Grey, Size: King
Ok... I absolutely love this comforter. In fact, I use it on three different beds. The colors are perfect. The material is soft. It's extremely light weight, but it keeps you warm in the winter and does not overheat you in the summer. I have this in King and Queen, and the sizing has been good for both. I have thrown it in my washing machine multiple times, and it holds up well. Great quality, low price.
