What's your dressmakers dummy wearing?
There's no room in my sewing room for such a thing.... but projects in
process include:
* "goth-y" gypsy skirt for a client
I ran out of black cotton for this and need to go shopping this weekend.
Fortunately Joann's is having a 50% coupon sale, so I will just buy a
whole bolt.
* early 16th century Italian market woman dress for me
I got it cut and assembled, and am sewing on 1" wide silk trim strips as
my arthritis permits the hand sewing. I might actually finish before the
end of renfest.
* early 18th century men's 'pirate' coat for my husband
The wool is cut, but the linen lining is not ready. I still need to pick
small applique flowers off several more yards before it is ready to use.
It cost me $2 a yard, because of that small inconvenience.
