Here is my current sewing list:
Completed from last list and from this Spring:
Finish Toile - I finished
this in July 2011! Yay! :) I ended having my sister wrap me in saran wrap and
then a layer of duct tape for a start--it worked WONDERS! I finally
have a good base!
Wool bodice/dress - Done and I am SO happy with it! :)
Semi-sheer dress - Done and just in time to wear on Sunday for our July event!
N's Blue tunic - DONE!
Move buttons on N's pants - DONE!
Tucked Petticoat for E - DONE!
Corded underdress for E - DONE!
E's purple plaid dress - DONE!
E's pinafore - DONE!
Currently on the table/Upcoming:
Timely Tresses Eliza Coretta Bonnet from kit: Form is done and covered in the silk. Bavolet is attached. Needs to be decorated and lined.
N's orange plaid tunic - Skirt is done. Do bodice.
N's Hat - Red wool mechanic's cap with leather brim (hopefully!). Worked on up-sizing the old pattern.
E's pink dress - Skirt is done other than pleating/gathering. Do bodice.
E's corded sunbonnet - have to downsize my sunbonnet pattern.
Repair seam in E's tucked drawers
Put markings in kid's underclothes to differentiate sizes! - This will make it SO much easier!
Fix escaping bones on gestational corset - I've decided I really don't like using Joann's sateen for corsets for this very reason. VERY inconvenient and sometimes painful!
Hydrangea Lawn Semi-sheer Maternity Dress - Since I'm going to be pregnant most of the summer, I decided it would be nice not to HAVE to wear my wrapper--as comfy as it is, it does get boring after you've worn it ALL summer! Not to mention that it will be warmer than I'll want it to be. I'd really like to get this done before our next event, since I doubt I'll be as blessed as I was for our first event and still be able to fit in my blue semi-sheer! That uterus just keeps climbing up! ;)
Work on hair style with rats - I'd like to get some of the faux tortoiseshell pins, too. Maybe when I (hopefully) order Nathaniel's leather brim, I'll get some from Timely Tresses.
Before Baby #3 (Late August):
Cap for Baby #3
After Baby #3 (Late August):
Corset
- I got pregnant, just to avoid this project! ;) ;) Just kidding! But I AM glad I don't have to face this for a while. It's just so stinking hard to fit yourself!!
Bone back point on wool dress
Tuck in cage waistband - with
the combination of losing weight (not that I'm losing weight at this point ;)) and the muslin stretching, I need to
take a tuck or two in the waistband to make it smaller.
Re-pleat Green cotton print dress skirt - Fortunately, this is the only dress that needs re-pleating after I made my cage! My mom may end up borrowing it for a while, anyway.
Someday:
New collars and other white accessories
Start saving for a parasol
Silk Cravat for Tim
Fancy petticoat - Because let's face it, I just need a fancy petticoat to go under my sheer dress and my wrapper! My inspiration image. Unfortunately, this has been put on hold since I ran out of fabric :P
