Going to stop obsessing now

chocolatepotI feel like I've actually achieved something sewing today, which is nice. The drawstrings in the neckline are in and now I'm looking at the skirt. Unfortunately one width of fabric is too little and two are too much, so I have to actually think about this. I hate wasting fabric. This is going to be very pretty, I hope the neckline isn't too wide and doesn't make the whole thing screwed up.
I am definitely learning things about Regency sewing, though! Considering what fabric to get for one of my own (even if I don't get any work done on the corset, I could just wear it over a bra in a pinch) - I'm liking this one, and I know you can never trust Fashion Fabrics Club, but ... the print itself looks very good, it's in a nice dark color, and it's got flowers on it for TulipFest. I'd have liked to go with pink but I find it very difficult to figure out which pinks I can wear. I've just remembered Renaissance Fabrics, though, and this is pretty. Or this might be a way to get the pink without going all pink.
