But the result looks like actual clothing and is in a wearable state.<\/p>\n<p>First, there was a lot of fussing with the lining. And that darn neckline. I tried the bodice on over a shift and corset, and realized that, yes, the neckline really did need to be lower. The high &#8220;U&#8221; neck looked neither historically accurate nor attractive, so big ol&#8217; broad scoop neck it is.<\/p>\n<p>Much more flattering and resembles the 1610s V&amp;A miniature, and also the neckline in these <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tudoreffigies.co.uk\/browse\/view.asp?id=119\">effigies<\/a> that look 1580s-90s (but are oddly inscribed as 1559!).<\/p>\n<p>My neckline won&#8217;t be as low as this <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tudoreffigies.co.uk\/browse\/view.asp?id=167\">effigy of 1589<\/a>, but that seems awfully revealing. I often wonder if some of those were real or there&#8217;s artistic license going on, especially in the early 17th century. Paintings can show an amazing amount of flat chest, like, of questionable anatomical realism without having nipples popping! But that&#8217;s a research topic for another day \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Then I worked on the tabs, which I&#8217;d patterned out and begun sewing during the week. Drew the sleevehead wings too. Started the fiddly sewing of these things in, which required a combination of machine- and hand-sewing. At the same time, I inserted lacing strips into the armscye (Mom graciously made sets of lacing strips with the eyelet hole stitch on her fancy embroidery machine, whew!).<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m a little annoyed, ok, more than a little annoyed with this project. It&#8217;s been surprisingly difficult for something that looks so basic, now that it&#8217;s essentially finished. But I have to remind myself that this is, I believe, the very first garment I have patterned all by myself. I draped the muslin on my corseted dressform all alone, nobody helping me. I didn&#8217;t start with any kind of commercial pattern. I didn&#8217;t scale a pattern or diagram up from a book. Nobody draped this on me either.<\/p>\n<p>Sarah came along later and changed the shoulder seams and the side back seams a little. But I did 95% of the pattern myself, which has never happened before. And it&#8217;s a good, solid, basic, pattern that I can use for many things. So yeah, not thrilling but practical. And a good learning experience.<\/p>\n<p>Next up, sleeves. Easy-peasy &#8212; I&#8217;m making the basic Elizabethan sleeve from Hunnisett, which I&#8217;ve made several times before. Although I couldn&#8217;t find my scale-up of the pattern, drat, and had to make another one. Done and fabric cut. But it&#8217;s dinner time.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"640\" data-carousel-extra='null' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 640px;
