18th c plans
Sep. 30th, 2011 12:53 pmI tried on my stays again and even though they are shoddy and lumpy and a little loose, I think I can make them do for now. I guess I have a little more pop-up than I realized, too. (very small hooray!)
At work last night I picked up 2.5 yards of lovely berry-red linen/hemp blend for a contrasting petticoat. I'm going to use the paisley border of the printed linen for something else and just cut my jacket from the floral.
I think it will be a caraco style, but I'm not sure. I've been doing a little internet research, but I think I just need to go to the downtown library when I get a chance. It's so much faster and more efficient than poking around on the internet. Whatever style I choose, I'm just going to call it a jacket, though. I can't be messing around with funny pretentious unpronounceable words.
