I know I saw a terrific album with lots of reference photos of Josefina's Harvest dress, and even a link to very similar fabric. I can't seem to find it now. Does anyone know where I can find this terrific album?

Hi! I think you mean the one I posted the other day. I am currently trying to make the harvest outfit. I was away for the weekend, and worked on the embroidery for practice. I haven't come up with a pattern for the camisa yet, as the bodice is different from the other ones I have. It has a wide flat yoke (that the embroidery is on) then gathers below that.
But here is what I posted the other day:
"I tried to find the skirt fabric and I found one with the same pattern but different colors by Marcus Brothers. So I looked on fabric websites and tried to find it, but no luck. But I did find a similar one by the same manufacturer in the same colors. It is called Chateau Rose Here is a link for where I found it:
http://www.quiltknit.com/fabrics/marcus_fabric_3.htm
I bought one yard for $8.50 and it should do for at least two skirts.
I am also linking to an imagestation album
http://www.imagestation.com/album/pi...?id=2106378347
where I have posted some of the photos that other hostboard members sent ME when I made the same request. I also include a photo of the actual Harvest skirt fabric (from the photos mentioned, then cloned with photoshop), and the fabric I bought, and a single photo of just the embroidery.
I looked into the sash, and have decided to use either a burgundy ribbon 3/4 inch wide, or to get twill tape that width (available where they have the bias tape at JoAnn's) in white and dye it--it seems to have the same weave as the original.
I hope this helps! PM me if you want me to send full-size images by email."
