my corset!  here is my best friend and sewing buddy holding it out, at the time the picture was taken (8/4) it did not have grommets or lacing, it does now, and fits wonderfully. i just haven't uploaded the new pictures.  it has binding on both the top and bottom, and i am really happy with it, as it is my first boned item i thought i was going to panic when sewing the channels, but it actually was quite easy



and here is my necklace that my friend made for me



as of now everything (major) is done except my sleeves and a pouch or two that i have yet to make!

Ok, I started sewing a new dress for me.  Although it seems like I have time for everything but sewing.  After sewing all day this is what I have so far

[Genievea Brookstone]

Oh I love the lace touch on that!

[LadyElizabeth]

Oh that is just so lovely!!  I truly love the ivory and brown together with the fabric pieces down the middle...  Can't wait to see the finished project.

[Lady Kathleen of Olmsted]

Lovely color combination. How wide are the shoulder straps?

[LadyShadow]

Thank you all.

And as far as the width of the shoulder straps i dont know.  Although after cutting them out from the pattern, I wish I would had made them a tad bigger

[Kate XXXXXX]

Ooh!  The Pretties!  The shiny things!

Lovely work.

[Syrilla]

Very pretty colors.    Brown is so underused, but can be such a power choice.

So I have said several times that I needed to redo the bodice in my avatar.  I started on it earlier this week!  I am very excited!

Here is the bodice in the avatar.  It is McCalls 4107.


I am using Simplicity 3782 for the new one with some modifications.
Here is the boning of the new one.  I even made the busk from a wooden paint stick!


Here is what I finished today.  The shoulder rolls are pinned in place at the moment.

Great job!
