Mom beaded one sleeve, I beaded the other. We are certifiably nuts. She, even more so, because she&#8217;s also beading the forepart. And I married into nutjobs because my stepmom-in-law helped bead the forepart and called today to say she could come back this week and bead more. Wow. I am the luckiest (and craziest) gal alive :-).<\/p>\n<p>To assemble the sleeves, I first spray-based the beaded and pearled silk onto white twill. Then I sewed that up, and sewed a bag-lining of white cotton. Sewed those together. Found some lace in The Stash, but it was a very bright white, so I dipped it in a quick tea bath to tone down the color so it better matched the ivory silk. Then I sewed that to the cuffs.<\/p>\n<p>Now I need to put the ribbon ties on both sets of sleeves, plus sew some hooks on the sleeve cuffs so they close neatly. When Mom finishes pearling the trim, I can sew that on the side openings of the hanging sleeves. Not to mention trim the bodice and skirt.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, I&#8217;m going to make the underskirt base out of white twill. Figure I can use the same pattern as for the farthingale, just a skosh bigger and make it fasten up the back. When the beading is done, I&#8217;ll spray-baste and sew the forepart to the front.<\/p>\n<p>Not sure if I&#8217;ll start the hat or ruff after that. Hat is technically more important as I need to cover my head. Except I&#8217;m <em>still<\/em> not sure what kind of hat I want to make! The ruff I know all about. Yet I can&#8217;t put the hat off.<\/p>\n<p>I have a surprisingly large amount of the pearled ivory silk leftover (probably could have managed with 2 yards instead of 3). So I might make a soft attifet out of that, simply wire the edge. Could alternate pearls and the red beads along the edge, if I have time to get fancy.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not the more coronet-like fantasy I had, but I don&#8217;t have a real construction design for that either. I *have* made attifets before, so that is a known quantity, wouldn&#8217;t take much time. And time is not on my side right now. Less than two weeks to go. And all next weekend will be occupied with partying (yay!).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ta-da! Mom beaded one sleeve, I beaded the other. We are certifiably nuts.
