Bethany

1790 Country English Costume

This gown is made entirely from peach cotton thread.  There are peach beads crocheted into the top of the bodice, hems of the sleeves, and brim of her hat.  She has peach roses and ribbon bows adorning her bodice and hat.  As well as peach lace and feathers.  She wears a peach crinoline under her skirt to give her added fullness.  Her hair has had a slight perm and is the sides are pinned up in the back with ribbon roses. 

This gown is my modified version of Paradise Publications Crochet Collector Costume Volume 57.
