As promised, part two of my Marie Antoinette "stawberry dress" aka "church dress" aka "chapel dress". Last time, I made the hat and mitts from the movie. This time, I'm making the dress! I show how I draft the pattern, troubleshoot the pattern, sew it together, trim it. Then let's go visit the chapel at Versailles - digitally of course.
