Well. Despite my day of only partly-productive sewing, I still had every intention of finishing and wearing the I Want Candy sack. But now? I'm waffling!

[livejournal.com profile] madamekat brought the weather forecast to my attention (forecast: Not Warm. At All), and [livejournal.com profile] blackcat452 might be wearing her green quilted petticoat. So. Hm. Do I want to dress down instead? In something slightly warmer than candy-pink silk? I think I might.

GAHHH I AM SO INDECISIVE! Which I do not have time for, hello; the event's Saturday! *smacks self*

I'll report back tomorrow with the decision!

Bwahaha! You know, I like the way you think! Now I want a quilted petticoat! Maybe two: one to wear over hoops, one not. Hmmm... And I do have red wool for a cardinal cloak!

...Probably not for an event in three days though. xD

I used pre-quilted material -with backing already attached- to make my orange petticoat. Took about 20 minutes. (Rectangle for the front, rectangle for the back. Pleat. Sew on waistband after cutting out excess quilting stuffing.)

If nothing else, a quick petticoat like that is great to wear under a skirt for warmth. Mine worked very well in January.

Oh, that prequilted stuff is a good idea! If I don't have time for this weekend, I think I'll make one for Harpers Ferry for under the hoops!
