green_marthaI'ù tired, I have stuffed nose and a bad headache again, and I obviously shouldn't have stayed up that long... What can I say, I'm a bad girl, once I've brought up the motivation to get working on something, I don't want to stop until I've reached a milestone. So I ripped the lining panels for the quilted petticoat and transfered the design on one of them. I also noticed I'm not that good about keeping patterns and I'll need to take the pattern directly from the pierrot because the fabric bits I kept as "pattern" aren't any good - except for the sleeves, which need to be lenghtened anyway. And now I have a deadline for this outfit, which is NOT how it was planned - ach well, I'll work on it, but I know I have a back-up if needed, I don't want to rush and make some stupid mistake like on the bustle dress.
So today ? Totally productive ! I had yet another pregnancy follow-up appointement, finished plotting the quilting pattern (it's a bit hmmm... personal I guess. Me likes it. No, it's not really documentable), transfered one half of said pattern's repeats onto fabric, AND I scanned a hell of a lot of old pictures. There's now an 1912 album on my FlickR as well. I'm planning to finish the issue I'm currently scanning (January 21st), then moving on to the 1895 and 1896 books that came in today, for a change.
Oh, and I did some baby-steps progress on the website. I'm freaking amazing today. Too bad it's already tomorrow... :)

on 2011-02-15 08:30 am (UTC)I'll definitely work my butt off to come in April - barring any last minute changes like health stuff, or the HG being unable to babysit the little pirate.
I'll definitely take a picture of the quilting design and the fabric today. It's the blue fabric I used to trim my Regency bonnet. And seeing how it goes, I'll have lots left over after I've made this ensemble, the petticoat only ate up two width of it, the jacket and waistcoat won't use up all that much more. *lurves her pretty satin*
