chocolatepotI bought 10 or 11 yards of white muslin (60") for February's petticoats and four of pimatex for a chemise and drawers from Dharma Trading this evening - woo, I'm probably going to be able to keep up with the HSM through July! Now I need to source cotton sateen for the exterior of my corset, or should I be really fancy and use silk? Pretty white or blue satin corset? I do like that one in the V&A with blue silk and white flossing. I'm not sure if I want to use the steels I have in it or buy a roll of German whalebone.
How much making do you think I need to do for the straw bonnet to not look like a cheater? The thought of starting from a roll of straw braid is making me feel faint. But buying a premade bonnet without a bavolet or trim seems like doing way too little for the HSM. I dunno, man, I really need a better bonnet either way.
