frualeydis | The jacket is finished (Reply)

The jacket is finished and looks mighty good if I may say so myself. Hopefully we can take some pictures tomorrow. What I should do is either to make a mock-up for my trouser skirt or repair the roof of the pavillion. What I want to do is to make a new effigy corset, one which is narrower in the bust so that my purple dress will fit me again. My old corset, from back in 2002 when this dress was made is worn out and my newer ones have too large bust measurements. I'm thinking about wearing that dress to the Winter Games.
I really want to make a hand sewn effigy corset from hand woven linen and boned with reeds, but first of all I plan to loose some weight, and secondly that will take more time to finish than I have before the winter games. But one can never have too many effigy corsets, right
