Today I have, except blogged some on my swedish blog, finished a lecture and done seven machines of laundry, sewn about half a shift for my masters test - part two. It's yet another 16th century shift/smock and I had a hard time getting enthusiastic about it. Since I do so many time periods and shifts differ between some of them I have at least ten hand sewn linen shifts/smocks and I couldn't really see that I needed another one. But it has to be a complete outfit. But then I decide to use the Sture shirts as basis for the pattern and since they differ some from the english shirt pattern I've used before, it became more interesting. I have now sewn the sleeves to the body and one side seam. It is not felled however, so I guess it's more accurate that I have made 1/3 of a smock. And then there's the collar, cuffs and ruffles. Most of the sewing was done while watching Roman holiday with my mother and

herzeloyde.
Tomorrow I will start the testing of my ability to work; I will work four hours a day fro two weeks in a lingerie shop downtown. This may be bad for my wallet. Especially since I somehow managed to get one of my favourite white bras purple today.
