I gave up on waiting on the rest of the appliques for the neckline. I pulled off the few I had on there, went to Hancock’s yesterday morning and bought some trim.
But let’s start at the beginning.
Friday I finished my corset.
Saturday I ran out to Joann’s since I had a gift card I needed fabric for my surprise costume. Got all that, came home and worked on stuff. Got a new back panel made, and started piecing together jewelry pieces I’ve collected for it, and beaded my girdle belt. (Also, played with dyeing my peggy wig)
Here’s some pics from Saturday night:
And a close-up of what I had done with the jewelry so far:
So then yesterday, like I said, I ripped the appliques off and sewed on the new trim. I finished up the jewelry pieces for the neckline and got them attached and lord are my fingers sore from working the needle through all that all day yesterday.
Also did various little clean-up things, sewed the buttons on my backpiece and hook-and-eyes on things.
Luna is acclimating quickly. She’s no longer scared of Indy (just a little iffy sometimes). She’s a ball of hyper energy, but yesterday she actually chilled on the couch with me for a long time.
And then went berserk over a straw.
