Since I've now completed the customary year in review, that means it's time to post the goals for 2013!
1. Finish the riding habit. It's at least about half-way done at this point. The skirts of the bodice need to be attached, I need to figure out how to do the huge collar, the sleeves, and all the trimming.
2. The Robe a la Turque. The petticoat is done. I'm currently working on the gown - the bodice and skirt are cut out.
3. 18th c red cloak. I already have the fabric.
4. 17th c gown. Based on this portrait. I'm in the process of buying fabric - I'm actually springing for silk taffeta!
5. Regency corset. I wanted to take the class at CosCol last year but was waitlisted. Maybe I'll get in this year?
6. Regency day dress. I bought swiss dot last year. I'm just waiting to make the corset first.
7. Regency overgown. Again, I already have the fabric.
8. Edwardian jacket for my mom. The mockup is done - I just need to actually make the jacket now.
9. Victorian waistcoat for my dad for Dickens next year.
10. 1950s cotton-printed dress to wear to Disneyland before CosCol.
11. Victorian button boots. I will probably make two pairs. I'm going to try making it from canvas first, and if that works out, then I'll spring for leather.
12. Possibly a pet en lair or caraco.
I think that's enough to be getting on with.
