*GRRRR* Skirt
Jul. 31st, 2007 09:01 amI think I am going to put the skirt aside for a bit and work on Chris' drunken master costume. I finished the skirt up as far as I can go with out the forepart. But it is probably best I don't have the forepart ready because I am just not thrilled with the shape I have on the skirt right now. I am not sure if it is just because I am so use to
aviendiora 's wonderful full skirts that require a hoop underneath or if it is truely because the shape is all wrong. I love how the back looks even without the bumroll. But the front seems rather flat. I think sit is to flat against my legs. I want it flat for the forepart but I still want it to look full. To top it off the waist is a bit big. I would rather it be a bit small so I can lose the weight with no problem. That is how I constructed the bodice I would like the skirt to follow the same trend. But I am afraid to put any more pleats into the front for fear it might make the front even more tight/flats. Very frusterated. I notice I get frusterated very easily with things I am doing for the first time that I really don't know what I am doing, I.e. no pattern. *sigh* So I am putting it aside until my frustration wanes a bit. I have pictures. They will be up on my website later today if anyone wants to take a look.
