Me too! Me too!
16 May 2014 04:39 pmI mean, I'll try to post every day. ;)
Uh... what so far...
I'magonna finish
rvqavalon's petticoat today, and pack it up and the green batiste to ship back tomorrow. (I'll also get the envelope chemise printed on wide paper while I'm out.) I also printed out some closeups of the beading patterns on the robe de style. So the plan for the weekend:
1. Finish petticoat.
2. Box up petticoat and batiste.
3. Take to the post office.
4. Get the envelope chemise printed.
5. Make the 1920s bandeau.
6. Fit the robe de style bodice.
7. Draft templates for the beading areas.
8. Sketch at least one beading pattern.
9. Make the pannier.
10. Order the rest of the crepe de chine and some extra lawn from Dharma.
11. Draft the skirt.
12. Make the 1910s brassiere.
13. Assemble the 1910s corset (as far as possible until the busk/boning arrives).
14. Learn the new sewing machine feet: ruffler, tucker, and hemstitcher.
15. Make 1810s strapped petticoat from pimatex.
16. Start on beading a test piece.
17. Gather pieces for 1780s shift and cut neckline.
18. Wait to finish corset before drafting/cutting the princess slip, the petticoat, and the negligee.
...um, not all of that is for the weekend. But this is what we call, in my line of work, The Path Forward. Feels good to have it written down!
In other news, I'm starving. And it's 4:30 PM. Time to raid the refrigerator and not spoil my dinner.
