Green Tudor Deadline

[CenturiesSewing]

I am in the final stretch so I need motivation!

My hopeful deadline for getting the dress done is March 10th and wearing it to BARF that day. If you are attending please feel free to say hi! I will respond to being called my screen name.  If you are in character please feel free to gig with me, my accent will be horrible! It may take me a second to realize what is going on, but I'll be happy to play. 


My to do list:

Make the hood and paste for my french hood
Embroider cuffs with blackwork - I'm torn between hand working them or machine fancy stitch patterns maybe I'll make two pairs..
Take in waistband of underskirt
Add a few more eyelets to my farthingale
Bling, if it arrives in time.

well, with less than a week to go; I think machine embroidery is in your immediate future.
Good Luck and hang in there!

Onward! We totally have no doubts you'll whip those sewing elves into shape and end up with another masterpiece.

(Thanks for the fitted gown link, btw! It looked super cozy!)

Wondering if you wore it this weekend?!?  I had lots of friends down there this weekend and am hoping to see you pop up in lots of pictures!

I did Amy, I have the mild sunburn to prove it. 

It was pretty crowded so I have no idea if anyone took my picture.

I was *just* wondering if you made it! Make sure SOMEONE gets your picture on its next outing!

I am waiting for the rest of my sparkley bits to arrive in the mail so I can finish up the ouches along the kirtle bodice. Once all the tiny final details are done (and we all know how into details I am  ) I'm going to borrow a high quality camera.

I know I want to see photos!

I wasn't there or I'd surely have arrainged to meet you and get a pic for you.  Yes we want to see you in it. Love looking at your beautiful work.
