I meant to post pictures, I really did !
Jun. 23rd, 2009 10:50 pmI even uploaded them onto the computer. Except they're crappy mirror pictures, so crappy that all of them are so dark and blurry you can't see *anything*. Okay, that's a lie. One of them is sharp. A back picture. But you can only see about one third of my back...
I promise, I'll try to take better pics by daylight.
The state of things right now is that I'm inserting boning into the jumps. I'm making the 1790 white linen jumps in Jill Salen's Corsets (thanks Gloria for reminding me there were some in there !) and so far, things are looking good. Looks like they'll give me support in the right places without compressing the belly and will be pretty comfy. I'm debating about putting some boning into the front diagonal channel or not. Salen herself is unsure, will have to check the fit.
And then, I still have no idea what to choose for the fabric. I'm a bit bummed about using my remaining silk for that. Not that I don't like the color or else but I'm not that thrilled about making two costumes in a row with the same fabric. Aaaaand I'll wear this in August, it might be hot, and thus I'd like something more washable in case I sweat myself to death...
Edith sayz : the jumps are a tad too big. And I'm still undecisive about what to wear over them. Must find a way to fiw them first, though.
