Aug. 17th, 2021 11:23 pmMe: I'm going to update more!
Also Me: Doesn't update anything.
I posted one or two IG posts, but nothing here, oops. I've mostly been working on the 1780s stays, as I felt most inspired to do that, I guess! I stopped at Home Depot on the way home from work and picked up more cable ties, so got the stays all boned as of tonight. Basted one half of the pieces together for a try-on and decided I was tired. Unless I'm super distracted, I can probably finish basting and try those on tomorrow at some point after my couple of morning classes.
I did also get my box o'dirndl fabric fun over the weekend, along with one of the Burda patterns I ordered, so after I check the fit of the stays I'll probably switch to dirndls for a bit (provided there isn't any awful fit crisis with the stays. I'm going to a small stitch-n-bitch on Saturday so I would like to have the stays at an "easy to sit and and sew for a few hours" point by then).
Also I stopped into my (former) Joann's for glue and somewhat accidentally came out with some fabric (and many half-serious pleas to come back and do sale sets please! Ha ha ha, sure, if you want to match what they pay me at school)... I grabbed a few quarter yards of fall & Halloween fabrics for new masks for this school year, but also I was absolutely unable to resist the skeleton cats! Unable to resist to the point of placing a pickup order for another local store to grab on my way home tomorrow, because Cherry Hill only had 1+ yard, and I NEED a dress out of this, you guys.
(Will I actually make it for this season? Doubtful. But I LOVE IT AND NEED IT.)
