I just about finished the corset. I just need to press the edges and sew in the panel that goes underneath the lacing in the back. Otherwise I'm finished. I'll post pictures of it laced up and on me when I get the last part done, but for now...
I'll be making vintage reproduction clothes, clothes in general, costumes, and some interior design elements. My research and projects will wind up here. I'm also very geeky, as will at times be evident in the costumes I put together. I'm particularly interested in the 20's-50's particularly for different reasons, however that is not the extent of my interest.

Once inspired and a great sale!
This weekend I had the privilege of shopping the Hancocks 56th anniversary sale. And because it was the 56th anniversary, many items were 56 percent off. Because of this I bought quite a lot. My first pattern/fabric combination is a pattern (I'm convinced is) inspired by Once Upon a Time. The picture looks just like an outfit Snow wore multiple times in the series. Because of a sale on the sale bin, I managed to get the fabric for less than five dollars, which is helpful when you need 4 yards of it. I bought more patterns and fabrics too but Ill post pictures of them when I get the chance.

How do you Solve a Hareem (pant) Like Maria?
I will add more glorious details at a later date, and at a time when the sun is shining, but here are the pictures from my harem/Hareem pant project. I made them with no physical pattern out of an old curtain panel (hence the "Maria" since she made all the clothes from the drapes). I will add step by step instructions and links to pages that were helpful to me in the process as well as a picture of me actually wearing the pants as soon as I can. That's all for now!
