Friday night I transferred the design to the cape, got the stitching done, and started beading.
Saturday I beaded a whole lot more.
Sunday I just kept beading.
I got the interior pieces done — I ALMOST got the outside band done. I would have finished it last night! But got my work cut off by a half hour.
Tonight I’ll finish that little bit up, do the horizontal line and the embroidered triangles. Then it’ll just be lining it, finishing the edges, pressing and doing the attachment on the back of the dress!
Some other stuff…
I also cleaned up my sewing room Sunday morning. The worst part is I haven’t cleaned up my patterns from the past year so I had this storage bin full of pattern pieces, half empty envelopes and whatnot, it was just a big mess. So I took an hour and cleaned them up, got them put away.
So now it’s ready to go when I finish Donna and start tackling the two bodysuit costumes — I have this friday off to work so I’m hoping to get a big chunk of both of those done this weekend.
Lastly I bought some super cheap Halloween costume shoes on clearance. Seriously they were $5. I’m going to repaint them/cover them in fabric and hopefully they will work for my Georgian dress. (I wish my fabric samples would hurry up and get here)
