Last week in my quest to make a full 18thcentury ensemble I started with me undies (aka a chemise or shift). This week, I’m tackling the skirt or petticoat from the 8161 American Duchess for Simplicity pattern.

Along the way, I realized you can transform it the combo of shift and petticoat into a surprisingly cute historybounding and/or hobbit ensemble. Watch out Rosie, I’m coming for your man (Hobbit?).

Follow along as I add to my army of bedsheet based historical and historical inspired outfits in my quest to equip my self in Outlander regalia for my 30th birthday camping trip.

Next up on my historbounding todo list is sewing the accompanying American Duchess for Simplicity bodice and stomacher from pattern 8161. And eventually, once I get the courage the stays/corset from the 8162 pattern.
