little updates
Jul. 24th, 2007 12:47 pmI cut the new front piece for my red silk corset and attached it. I haven't gotten any farther than that yet but I can already tell it's going to improve the fit a lot. Today I hope to put the busk in and stitch the boning channels.
I've enlarged the bustle pattern from Corsets and Crinolines. I wonder if I should do a mock-up or if I should just go ahead? I think I might just dive into the actual fabric and see what happens. I don't have a whole lot of time before the state fair's handcraft drop-off day.
I finally started the outlining on my new embroidery piece. I'm a pretty slow embroiderer, but I still hope to have it done for the fair.
I also finally started on my HB's organic denim natual-indigo-dyed jeans.
So things are happening! I think if I can stay focused on my few current projects, and not daydream too much about things I will be sewing a month from now, I'll keep making good progress.
