Partlet Begun

I have begun work on my project and have drafted, cut and begun sewing the outer partlet for my gown. I was able to come across the most exquisite black wool, that is incredibly fine and light enough for summer wear. I have paired that with a crisp white linen. When finished it will tie at the sides with hand woven ties from my box loom and pin closed in the front as was typical in the period.
