For many, Faire season has started or is just around the corner. What do you have own your sewing schedule? Mine is looking pretty busy as I delve in many periods and genres.
What I have coming up.....A replication of a Chemise/Smock, Septa Unella from Game of Thrones, Boudica, a couple of Pirate Coats, shirts and chemises for clients, and a Victorian Bustle Gown for myself, and a Civil War Ball gown for a client's wedding in Texas in October.

Lady K, girl, you bad arse! I need to start saving up for my next Lady K ensemble! Got any good ideas? (Like, DUH!)
I haz some ideas, Merlin! Something with a touch of GOLD in it. 8)
The outer layer of the Corset. The under layers are Cotton Canvas with boning channels as well as a lining layer. I have plenty of Blue Satin to make a binding before I add the Gold Gimp and Gold appliques.

The Cosplay Snow White is finished. I took the corset part to the Shoe Repair for Brass Grommets. The Gold embroidery designs are Iron On appliques from www.gloryshouse.com (http://www.gloryshouse.com).
I have yet to tack on the Modesty panel at the back and ship this beauty down to Texas on Friday.
This was a fun project to work on. More information about my work can be found on my Facebook page for Custom Designs by Lady Kathleen.
