Inspiration to this design I have found from an original 1820s dress.
The original dress is a roller-printed cotton day dress, circa 1820, with teal-blue flowerheads and wine scrolling grasses, empire line with puff sleeves, flounces to neck and cuffs, piped bands to hem.
Recommended fabric type fora dress would be Cotton Voile.
Emilie Flygare-Carlén was a Swedish author, youngest of 14 children.
Already as a 12-year-old, she was allowed to accompany her father on freight trips on the Bohus coast.
When she was seventeen, she had to take personal responsibility for a boat; the environments she writes about in her Bohus books she has experienced herself.

Sustainable Development
Sustainable Development
The importance of global sustainability awakens with Agenda 2030 goals in mind.
Agenda 2023 refers to a set of initiatives and goals aimed at addressing global challenges and promoting sustainable development. While there is no single, universally recognized “Agenda 2023,” it often relates to the ongoing efforts stemming from the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) established in 2015 under the broader framework of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. This agenda emphasizes the need for collaborative action among nations to tackle issues such as poverty, inequality, climate change, and environmental degradation.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Grandma's Laundry Tricks:
- Do not Brush, Rub or Scrub the printed fabrics too hard to avoid damage to print quality.
- Wash with similar colours to avoid staining or tint.
- Please do not overuse the centrifuge, it only wrinkles the fabric.
- Please do not overuse the dryer or use extrem heat, this only tears the fibres apart.
- A dehumidifier is a great invention to dry the fabrics and clothes.
- Dry the fabrics outdoors, if possible, but not under direct sunlight.
- Environmentally awareness and the durability of clothing go hand in hand.
- Do You really need to use the fabric softener or is white vinegar good enough?
