Morning Modelbuch (6/10/2018)

I’m starting to work on my partlet for the gown I’m making and so came back to the lace patterns worked in the shapes for them. These sets from Vecellio’s 1593 _Corona Della Virtuous Donne_ have the advantage of having the back piece, front piece and the collar all complete. Figure I’ll draw them to size and see how they work up. I may need a taller collar, but I’ve been threatening to see if these shapes work better than the rectangular pieces I’ve used in the past and now is as good a time as any to do some experimenting. http://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k1518500v/f163.image.r=Vecellio
