From Fabric-store.com
linen for stays & petticoats
I went with the mustard color for one set of petticoats and the red for the nicer petticoat and stomacher set. For the stays I went with the darker tan color. Plus I threw in a bit of nice linen for a shift and the inner layers for the stays.
From Fabric.com
wool for mantua
Choose the cocoa brown wool gab for the mantua. It's good and universal and I am one of the few people who does actually look good in brown, so why not go with it. Used a 15% off coupon, yeah!
Monday I will order the shoes & the supplies from Wooded Hamlet since both of those have to be made over the phone.
