Oh and the first mistake is....

So I thought I was doing so well getting my toile together :



Yea, I did the button flap on the wrong side of the skirt piece. Oh it was all going so well! The joy of a toile of course is that I can just flip the panel over...need to make sure I don't make the same mistake in top fabric.

On the plus side, today I went fabric shopping and found some things for part 2 and I've booked to go to the Bath Costume Museum to look at actual 18th Century Dresses, which is exciting. The other day I went to the Museum of Design and Plastics and looked at 50s dresses too, a really good way to learn about historical construction:
