I just got a dummy, and she's still riding around in the back of my car. I am hoping to soon start on an elizabethan gown that I think I have all the materials for now... black silk for the petticoat bodies, red-black shot silk for the over gown, velvet for the guards, and lots of 8 mm pearls and assorted metal beads to accent the embroidery to go on the guards. I've had the linen for the partlet and sleeves for quite some time and have the sleeves about 75% done, so I'm pushing to get that project done before I start the bodice work... when I'm not making or dressing my dolls, that is

My dummy,or one of them, is presently "resting" after a busy week of being fitted with several vintage and antique wedding gowns. Another one is standing about sporting a rather Large ensemble circa 1906, in black and white, for a show this weekend. kathleen ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jayne Thomas" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, May 11, 2006 3:13 AM Subject: [h-cost] Re: What's your dressmakers dummy wearing this spring? > Hi! > > My toddler size dummy is wearing a muslin of the Jean Hunnisett 1569 bodice, which I finished a couple of nights ago. As silly as sounds, I'm really pleased that I have done it, even if it has taken it a month! I hope to put it on my Yahoo! photos page soon, so I will let you all know, and tell me what you think. Just got to work out the skirt now....! > > All the best > Jayne > > Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com > _______________________________________________ > h-costume mailing list > [email protected] > http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume > _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
