Pattern shenanigans

Double post~

Since this kinda goes together.
This is the altered pattern from this sewing pattern

For this dress
-> https://www.gnm.de/ausstellungen/dauerausstellung/kleidung-ab-1700/
The light one in the middle-ish right in the top pic. (I didn’t find an English version of the site ^-^")
I visited there a couple of years ago and took some nice photos. Especially the sleeve details~~
It’s so pretty and light and airy =w=
I also like that the Bertha collar doesn’t go around to the back and creates volume.

Do tell if you want some of the photos, I just don’t know about publicly posting them cause museum copyright can be weird.

Do feel free to play around with the pattern if you want to. The numbers there are the centimeter sizing of the miniature one on paper wich I was able to just adjust up (like 0,2 cm becoming 2,0 cm by moving the comma one digit, 2,7 cm -> 27cm and so on) and get something that worked well for me sizing wise.
Don’t know if everything works as I’d like jet since I haven’t tested the full thing.
