Oct. 28th, 2015 08:40 pmThird review, yay! I want to post asking for people to review, but it hasn't been long enough for anyone to make anything so I'm holding off.
Ughhhhh my back hurts so much. Cramps. This is actually a great thing! I was scheduled to blow on Halloween, which was increasing my stress, which was making my period acne even worse. So after Catherine what-happened-to-your-face'd me I started dabbing with hydrogen peroxide, which has been helping. And normally when I'm stressed my period waits and waits and the PMS just continues ... But this time it came a few days early! So I feel kind of crappy right now but my skin is so much less blotchy and I won't have to deal with it at the wedding, probably.
Speaking of, am not doing the one hour dress. It needs too much thought put into fitting etc. and I haven't been able to deal with it. Looks like butt, no hems done. But! I could change into Regency and stop having to deal with the bustle. I've sewn in the bands of tape I put across the front opening of the latter to make it presentable (this is really the crappiest bustle anyone's ever seen), and tomorrow I'll have to resew the Regency corset straps and sew across the top and bottom of the busk pocket. Whhhhyyyy are all of my costume underthings make-dos. Edit: shhhhhh no okay, I'm wearing a totally different outfit and its really cute and still a bit fancy and has some black in it. I'm just so excited!
A cut out the pieces to Butterick B5556 (rounded collar version). I have more than a yard less fabric than it requires, but by cutting four panels instead of eight and making the sides just a slight bit less flared I waas able to cut it out with even a bit extra for mistakes. The only trouble is that I had to look up how to do an FBA with dolman sleeves and I'm not totally sure I did it right. Still, worst comes to worst, I'll piece in a bit on the end or down the arm or make a gusset in the armpit.
