I think I’m just gonna buy a shirt, because, bleh, who wants to make a frickin’ shirt? Not me, that’s who. I like this one<\/a> on Etsy, and inquired if she could add sleeve ruffles and deliver by July 1.<\/p>\n

Considering this neck stock<\/a> too, but waffling because, well, it costs as much as the shirt (though half is the buckle, to be fair). I sure as hell don’t want to make all those teeny-weeny little stitches (not that I expect this repro to be as insanely eye-bending as this original<\/a>, of course). But still, shit I don’t wanna sew. Know your limits, go with your strengths.<\/p>\n

Also, work within your deadlines! I’ve got about a month to make everything. Wig and extra hair is on order (kept delaying that until after I paid some big bills). Waistcoat is at least embroidered and will take maybe an hour or two to sew up (famous last words!). Then I have to draft the coat and breeches, for which I will need help. I have patterns and books, but y’know, I need 3D help.<\/p>\n

Then I have to cover some shoes (not going with the Georgianas after all), style the wig, test-drive the makeup and probably cut some new patches. *If* there’s time in the end, I’ll make a teeny tricorn to perch atop the wig, but that might wait until CoCo. I mean, really, the wig will be huge enough, if all goes according to plan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
