Craftily

Still aching in all the "gardener's butt" places, but feeling remarkably good. Why, you ask? Because the wedding dress is done. I'm stitching together a dry-cleaners sample (for any dry-cleaners Armida needs to take it to to practice their chemicals on first to make sure the dress won't melt) and tonight I'm ironing the dress, and tomorrow Wonderful Husband is delivering it to her along with leftover fabric and a spool of ribbon for lacing. But it's done, it's done, it's done, with nearly two weeks until the wedding~!

The Summoner dress is largely constructed. To do on that:

cut out a mockup of a sleeve and make sure it'll work
cut out, trim, and sew on the actual sleeves
lacing holes for the back
a placket to go behind the lacing
hem the dress
make and sew on red trim lines for the front (match to the sleeves?)
make and sew on cross-lacing trim (match to sleeve/cloak trim)

Then I get to make the cloak and the headdress! ^_^

Gacked from sandpanther....

( My Personality )

Ha! Finito!

So this evening, Wonderful Husband made dinner, I hammered out the last ten problem child lines on UM6 (including the next-episode preview and the MebiNavi), tossed it at sandpanther for a quick beta of the most egregious lines, ironed my work shirts, we put the laundry away, and I ironed Armida's wedding dress, snugged it on a hanger between tissue paper, and tossed a plastic cover over it so that it doesn't get dirty between now and the wedding. Wonderful Husband will deliver it to her tomorrow at work. And tomorrow I shall put up (finally!) some of the construction photos. For now I go thud. And somehow it seems like I did more than this short list, but I cannot think what it is. I do note, however, the absolute lack of any work on the Summoner outfit....
