Turmeric Dyed Pelisse

I used Sense and Sensibility's A Regency Spenser Jacket & Pelisse pattern for the jacket bodice and to create the curve on the skirting I used the Front Skirt piece of the Regency Dress pattern.

I used a homespun quilting cotton for my jacket and linned the bodice with lawn.

I used the turmeric dye instructions from Sasha Duerr's "The Handbook of Natural Plant Dyes" to create the bright yellow.
