Plugging away!
May. 29th, 2011 12:23 amStill hard at work on my Edwardian bits and bobs, all the undies are done (right down to re-doing the neckline of the combinations to take off the lace frill that was too bulky) I just need to sew the flounce onto the petticoat hem.
I patterned a basic bodice block tonight, it's front opening, fitted with darts and high necked so I can use it for any futre styles. So tomorrow I need to mockup a back opening, pigeon fronted blouse, with a low square neck for the yoke collar :)
I think I've got all the bits and bobs I need for the hat, I'm going to be following Jen's tutorial here: http://festiveattyre.blogspot.com/search/label/suffragette I've re-shaped lots of straw braid hats, but never a woven one, so we'll see how it goes! I'm so glad it's the half term holiday now!!!
