green_martha: (pirates !)
I hoped I could skip the pirate pants for the Home Geek if I was in a time crucnh (which I obviously am), but yesterday when talking to him it appeared his normal dress pants or shorts won't do. So I'm packing the first mock-up with me and am now dashing of with a few other projects and spare fabric for [livejournal.com profile] argyronete to another Serpentaire workshop at [livejournal.com profile] lady_darkstone's. See ya tonight !

As previously mentionned, I spent today sewing with [livejournal.com profile] argyronete and [livejournal.com profile] lady_darkstone. The later patterned and cut out a flapper dress, while the former worked on her wedding dress. And I have pictures (sadly a bit blurry) to prove that she's going to look AMAZING.


There's a hell of a lot of handwork going into that. The pattern is from Fashion of the Gilded Age, I can't recall which page (and the book is with her, obviously).


I was well-inspired to take some fabric for a new pirate pants mock-up, because I forgot to the Kitty's stuff in my work bag, and I couldn't have worked all day long on beading the Pillowflower. So I compared my first mock-up with a pair of shorts which I know fit the Home Geek, made a second mock-up, and let him try it on tonight.

I have to take them in a little at the side, but otherwise they fit okay. Not really great, but okay considering those are my third pair of pants ever, and the first one not for myself. I'd like to get rid of the wrinkles in the back, but don't know how to proceed... I guess I'll have to think a little more about that.
