Update!

***
Eeeash...It's been nearly a year since my last post!

I've been very bad about keeping this blog updated.  A new job (and commute) has been taking up quite a lot of my time and sewing has really taken a back seat.

However!
I have several projects that are *this* close to being complete, I just need to finish off a few accessories or seams.

This includes:
-A black loose gown which just needs to be hemmed (and have one sleeve re-set)
-A black fitted gown that is completely done, I just need to finish off a few more accessories so I can do another "Mix n' Match".
-A pair of black bodies which are done (but still thinking about adding some tabs to)
-Two new ruffs, one of which is done and the other is hemmed and pleated, it just needs to be sewn into a collar.
-And finally, a blue kirtle which still needs a quite a bit of work, but all the hard bits (like boning and pad-stitching) are done and I could probably finish it off over the course of a long weekend.

So things are happening...but nothing is in a state to be documented.

In the meantime, here is a photo from last week's Faire!
(I finally made a pair of sleeves to go with my Beige/Brown kirtle)


That's it for now! Hopefully more to follow soon...
