Craftily

[sakon76]

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! ^_^

Was kind of the idea. ^_^ Since last time AX was at this hotel we did Cream Mage and Ovelia photoshoot.... but first I have to finish it!

Strangely, I've been drooling up and down the Geomancer costume as I replay FFT this past week. ^^ Summoners, dancers, and geomancers are like, my gods in that game.

I want to see a billion pictures when it's complete. ♥
