LIVE TODAY! I came across some silk taffetas at a good price so I'm passing the savings onto you!

If you're in the market for some cute tripes & plaids, check out what we've got ☺️

ALSO- I'm leaving the Minette Stays Preorder up for the rest of the day so you've got a few more hours to snag then at the preorder price.

Happy Tuesday!

❗Gentle reminder that the preorder sale ends on May 18th for paper versions and tomorrow for PDF files over a the site❗

This is the pair I made before my trip to Bath and they are seriously the most comfortable (and fastest) pair of stays I've ever made. I used 3 layers of linen and a very small amount of boning. Binding is minimal and they are very easy to alter to fit your shape.

These are a great first venture into stays if you're curious about historical techniques before jumping into the or patterns.

Don't miss out!

Time's a tickin' ⏰

Hello everyone! So sorry for disappearing— the end of April & beginning of May is a busy time around here (school coming to a close & birthdays to celebrate) and I've got my head above water now.

Thank you all so much for a fantastic Jane Austen Festival weekend! It was lovely to see so many people and get to visit with you all :)

The VFG website is up to date with inventory and I will be restocking patterns shortly. So if you don't see the size you need, never fear!

Keep an eye out for the newsletter on Friday if you want updates on what's going on behind the scenes.

Have a wonderful Wednesday 💕

The storms last night didn't give us wind damage or tornadoes like anticipated ... Instead my studio & utility room got backed up with water 😣

Luckily only a few boxes were lost (contents are fine) but now that I've moved everything I have to wait for it to dry before I can move things back enough to send out shipping.

I am so sorry for the delay— I will get to your orders as soon as I can... Including the 17th century pattern preorder from February.

Thank you for your patience! The weather this year has been crazy.

Preorder closes tomorrow at 11:59pm EST!

This is your last reminder :)

Based on a swatch from 1771, this linen repro is being woven specially for us and we're so excited! Snag some yardage for your next shirt, apron, bed gown, or whatever you're wanting some lovely linen for
