2013 Costuming Goals
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.
