Dec. 10th, 2020 11:55 amOh dear. Nearly a month since I last posted here. Sorry!
Anyway, the 18th c ensemble (aka petticoat and jacket pattern test for the Amalia pattern) is done. I would like to make a fichu and apron out of patterned fabric for it, and I'm also thinking of making a new shift and possibly a market bonnet to finish out the ensemble.
That said, I'm getting a little tired of these smaller projects, and I'm ready to go back to a big project. I haven't decided if it will mean me finally returning to the Daniel Deronda riding habit, or if it means I will do a red and white striped 1880's dress, but it's one of those.
Though I do still have two smaller projects that will come first. I'm currently working on a 1950's Christmas dress, which is currently half cut out, and I want to make a quick Christmas skirt as well. But as soon as those are done (hopefully this week or early next week), I think it will be time to head back to the bustle era.
Oh, and I did totally reorganize my fabric stash. It's so much nicer now! You can see the first part of the reorg in my most recent youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCLxk6c5Sy8&t=594s
As it seems I have a hard time remembering to post here, if you want actual updates, please check out my instagram or youtube.
