Sewing plans

[frualeydis]

As usual after Visby I have ideas for new garb. Since I have so much garb it is not for whole new outfits, but for a kirtle to be worn under both this dress and this gown:



Of course I need to make proper headwear for it, and a new goller, since I got drunk at Kalmar Castle and lost it; I may have to shorten the bodice too, since ten years ago I tended to make my bodices too long, despite the fact that I have a very long upper body.

More information will be given and possibly a (short, obviously) dress diary created when I finish my husband's new linen shirt which I started on the last days of Visby medieval week.

Another project is to make a "Cis-gown", as Valeria calls it; that is a gown of the type fluffy_badger wears, for her. It will be a part of her 14th birthday present and we have already bought the fabric.

I really want to sew too but since both my hands are achey right now I'm just going to have to NOT-sew for a week or two. *fidgets*
But I have so many ideas...
I've decided I'll use the wood workshop in school to make a large embroidery frame. I really long to make a gown with a enbroidered sleeve like Myra's. And other things too, like outer clothes. :)

The reason I'm up at this time is that the sewing on Rickard's shirt made my hands and arms hurt too much to sleep :(
