Women's Sizes XS-3XL

This sewing pattern pays homage to the tea gowns of the Edwardian era, evoking the elegance and sophistication of the early 20th century.  The gracious life of the proper Edwardian lady demanded different fashions for different times of the day. Tea gowns were worn during the later afternoon, marking the time between daywear and eveningwear. They were immensely popular because women could put the tight corsets aside for several hours and enjoy the comfort of these loose-fitting, casual styles of soft layered fabrics, yet still be tastefully presentable for visitors.

Our Afternoon Tea Dress, inspired by the Edwardian tea gowns from 1912-13, is adaptable to any occasion or time of day. Whether made as a sumptuous wedding gown, feminine maternity fashion, slinky nightclub number, or tops for everyday, the versatile elements add up to a memorable impression. The Dress features an optional drape that is artfully arranged at center front and held in place with shirred Belt. The easy-sew Bow can be attached at the front or back of the Belt for further ornamental texture. The Sweetheart Tunic wraps in front and can be held in place with Belt or Bow. The ruffled-sleeve Pullover Tunic can be worn belted or hanging straight.  These tops are also wonderful on their own, or worn as modern everyday wear.

This pattern is huge, with 4 garment and accessory patterns included, as well as detailed cutting and sewing instructions and 4 pages of professional tips for sewing success. 

Suggested Fabrics:

Skimming the Surface
Format: Hardcover
The essence of this book is to succinctly explain the role of CIA's National Clandestine Service (Directorate of Operations) in formulating and more importantly executing a coherent counter-terrorism strategy. Gary Berntsen is a retired CIA intelligence officer (clandestine service) with an impressive record of field assignments to his credit. He also clearly knows the ways of Washington D.C. in that this book is designed for those suffering from attention deficit disorder. While he raises several interesting point in the book, he also reveals an astonishing narrowness of view and tendency to reduce everything to its simplest terms. In his introductory `background' chapter Berntsen makes the dubious claim that the collection of intelligence from human sources (HUMINT) is the "primary mission of CIA." Apparently he is unaware that CIA was originally founded to produce all source finished intelligence and that the National Intelligence Council (NIC), until recently under CIA, was the final word in the U.S. Intelligence System. Nothing reveals the sorry state of CIA's Directorate of Intelligence better than this claim. In the same manner Berntsen is apparently oblivious to the availability and uses of intelligence collected by technical means. To his credit he does recognize that the best intelligence is more often available from open (non-classified) sources than from secret sources. Yet he neither expands nor follows up this observation. Berntsen more or less follows this pattern through out this book. For example he provides a brief discussion of the traditional Islamic Banking System called Hawalla, but is apparently unaware that the system is based on a recognized credit not cash and that money does not move across international borders. The system is widely trusted and is widely used by Muslim expatriates in the West and Saudi Arabia to send money home. For this reason Hawalla credit transfers providing money to terrorists are easily lost in a world wide mass of transactions. Yet it is possible to track Hawalla transactions and it has been done without "intensive manpower" allocations. Berntsen deserves a good deal of respect and credit for his obvious service to the U. S. and his dedication to the cause of clandestine intelligence operations and its hand maiden covert operations. Yet this book is a terminally superficial and ill-considered work by someone who not only should know better, but could have produced a first rate `practical guide' to a counter-terrorism strategy.
