Everybody's working on CoCo, I feel so luxuriously chilled. (Know what else is luxurious? The way these keys pop up when I hit them. Damn!) But I still gots some sewing to do.
What I will do this week(end)
- Sew together the pieces of the black bustle bodice
- Put in the sleeve of the Regency evening gown and at least pin up the hem
What I will do eventually but is not urgent
- Two 1860s petticoats, pleated and/or gored
- Drawers
- Finish up checked 1811 dress - needs fastenings, hems, and regathering/darting of front
Personal sewing I need to get around to
- Something '50s with the dress length of cotton I have piled up in the living room. I'd like it to be sleeveless, but in that cool cap-sleeves-cut-in-one-with-the-bodice way, know what I mean?
- T-shirts with the ribbed jersey I bought ... the trouble is that I no longer seem to wear t-shirts because I wear dresses every day for the heat. Don't know what to do with this
- Underwear, because some of mine is looking real ratty
I was going to make a list of fantasy historical sewing that I'm obsessing over lately, but nothing is actually coming to mind outside of my actual projects. IDK? But when I think about it, what I really want for no particular reason is a smart picnicking outfit from 1868 with a small hoop. And an entire early 1810s wardrobe.
