For those of you who might be wondering, here is the breakdown of the time it took me to make the linen dimity petticoat: 45 minutes - side seams 45 minutes - hemming pocket slits 20 minutes - finger pressing the hem (because linen holds a fold really well, I did this in place of basting) 120 minutes - hemming 140 minutes - pleating and waistband (this took longer than it should have because I had to piece the linen tape for my waist ties as my tape was too short) 35 minutes - miscellaneous ironing Total: 6 hours and 45 minutes Resources: Most of my fabric and notions for these petticoats - https://burnleyandtrowbridge.com The pink wool stays I'm wearing in the last clips were made by me, and there are two videos about their construction - 1:    • Hand Sewing 18th Century Stays, Part 1   and 2:    • Hand Sewing 18th Century Stays, Part 2   The lappet cap I'm wearing in the last clips was made with the Mrs. Sandby pattern by Good Wives Linen - https://www.etsy.com/listing/99985686...
