Sewing Room Tales: August 2014
http://sewingroomtales.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 30, 2014. If you will recall, sometime ago, I made a post entitled Books. Wherein I recommended a few books that I love. Well, this is sort of in the same series thingy! It's Music. (but you already knew that right? So, all I listen to right now is folkish and vintage (read 40's type) and Christian music. Mostly the latter. So here are my absolute favourite Christian bands! Pretty much any Scottish or Irish songs I like. and lots of '40's. I don't really have favourites of those). Haha Y...

Two Teen Seamstresses: May 2014
http://twoteenseamstresses.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 15, 2014. Vintage Inspired Summer Dress. Just a little blurb here, the dress is not historical, made only for modern wear. But it's still cute and I like it, and thought you might want to see it :). Stats: Around 4 yards of sheer red cotton, bought for a regency dress that never got made. Lined with sturdy white cotton sheets. 6 buttons. Draped. Side zipper. I thought I'd try and join the bandwagon of adding pretty fonts to photos. Yay or nay? What would ya'll think if I started doing this?

Monday, June 9, 2014. Modest Swimsuit: Into My World of Draping, Part II. It's been a while, and my second draping post is long overdue! So lets get started. This is the finished product. First, you'll put on a tight shirt/cami/blah that you can pin fabric to. Like so:. Mark center bust down to waist, neckline, and shoulder seam, (about middle of neckline? Where my thumbs are). Then take the straight edge of another scrap of material, and pin it to the edge of the first piece, on your body. Since there a...

Sewing Room Tales: December 2015

Sunday, December 13, 2015. Update on the Anne Girl Wedding Gown. I have the skirt completed (overskirt that is. still have to make the under one which will be attached with the overskirt at the waist), the bodice completed (except for ruffles around the neck, and cuffs need to be done). The skirt has over 540 inches of ruffles on it gathered into 180". I've sewn everything by hand. Needless to say, it was a blast! I watched the Civil War series by Ken Burns while I did it :).

Saturday, September 19, 2015. The Anne Shirley Highwayman/Wedding Dress. Well, it's pretty much Anne Shirley's dress she quotes the Highwayman in, but its also a little different.". That pretty much describes my project! D But I'll go into more detail for the benefit of prettiness and fluffiness minded readers! Here is one little idea which it is going to be hugely based off of! This is a doll pattern but. I can make my own patterns. This is basically Anne Shirley's Highwayman dress! The Anne Shirley Hig...

Two Teen Seamstresses: November 2013
http://twoteenseamstresses.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 28, 2013. I Love Half Boots (my first attempt at shoe making! I know it seems like I've only got small things going on, but they are still a sewing/reenacting necessity. My last project (just finished today! Was a pair of Regency half boots. They were made of silk, leather, and even linen during the 1800's, but mine are made from faux suede. I got it for free from a friend of Bascha's, and it seemed pretty durable. I'll be wearing them in the Latta house and cabins. Inside of the boot.

Tuesday, September 8, 2015. Chemise a la Reine Pt. II. The difference is that I"m wearing stays. And the sash is a much wider ribbon. Everything else is the same. Oh, and I made a chatelaine. I'm not sure exactly how period correct it is (probably not very much so), but it went with the general idea, looked pretty, and I'm pretty sure the visitors at the event had no idea :P. My new white stays that I made to wear to the ball. Bascha looking lovely as ever :). Chemise a la reine. A long-sleeved silk gown.

Thursday, June 12, 2014. Well, I promised a post on the goats and doggie, right? I'm not doing this when I don't have to am I? So this will be mostly a picture post with a few little details about the babies :D. Here is baby Tucson (or however that's spelt) He is actually pretty big. This guy has been my buddy for a while! LOL though he has now graduated from "little-baby-goat-that-likes-to-jump-in-my-lap-while-I'm-writing" into "big-greedy-buckling-that-wants-his-milk-NOW". Tucson hamming it up LOL.
