That sewing post
Mar. 12th, 2009 09:42 amI promised a sewing entry a couple of days ago, and then never followed through. Sorry. I seem to be still kind of struggling with the whole diet induced, life induced ennui thing. It is getting better. I think. I mean, I'm posting, right? And I even read my f-list this morning.
AND, I have my doctor's appointment today, in two hours! The one where she tells me what I get to add back into my diet. This particular hell is almost over! (I admit it - I bought a bag of Cadbury's mini chocolate eggs and hid them in a drawer, so they'll be waiting for me once I'm cleared for chocolate again, which will probably still be a little while.)
I finally finished (yay!) the underdress for my Regencygown daydress - it is super adorable! A friend and I are going to make duct tape dress forms of each other one of these weekends, and then I'll be able to post pics of sewing projects much easier.
In the meantime, I know what my next project will be. I'm going to make a skirt for myself. Not a costume, a skirt. Of course, being me, it isn't just a normal pencil skirt, or spring skirt, or whatever. I wanted something different. Something you can't just walk into a store and buy, otherwise, what's the point? But still very pretty. Maybe something that could go well with one of my corsets. So. I'm going to make a Victorian-esque skirt that will be beautiful and unique, and which I could wear to things like weddings or other special events. ( Explanation with handy pics under the cut. )
