It has definatly been a full day of sewing. Feels like I don't have alot to show for it but I know I got a lot done for me. All pieces are cut out for both corset A and corset B. Corset A is the corset/bodice for my Comic Con costume. Corset B is the corset for the revamped Steampunk arpon costume, which will be renamed as soon as it tells me its new name.
One layer of drill has been sewn together for Corset A. Took a little while because of the curves on it. That and my waist notches got off slightly. Kind of frusterating because I was being so careful about that. Before I sew up the next layer I will double... probably triple check my marks. And again just for my own record. Corset A actually had 20 pieces of drill. I forgot the modesty panel earlier. Then 10 pieces of fashon fabric that I will cut out later. Lots and lots of pieces!!!!!!
For corset B I pinned all the fashion fabric pieces to the drill pieces. I plan on sewing them all together so I can use them as one piece from then on. I started sewing them together. Realised I needed to put the busk in before I could sew the pieces together on the Center Front. Did that. It went together so much easier using two layers then it did the first time I put it in. I sew to more panels together and then had to call it quits. I could feel myself getting into the "just hurry up and finish this" mood and didn't want to mess somthing up because I just wanted to be done. I wish I could blame the waist notches on that but no... that was just me messing up. *BLEH*
For the longest time my Little Man (Kit) had not been paying any attention to me sewing. His great interest was playing with the plastic boning and laying on newly bought silk, that was it. So I was starting to think I had lost my little sewing partner. Nope... I must of just been doing projects that he had no interest in. When I pulled out the Steampunk skirt and petticoat he crawled into the tulle at the bottom of the petticoat. As I was examining it he got the wild look in his eye and started pouncing me and fabric. Then today he gladly supervised me as I cut out the drill. My little sewing kitty is back. :)
