Pictures of Finished Gentleman Aviator's Tailcoat

[kiarapanther]

So the coat is all done other than maybe a few tweaks that aren't noticeable but would make us both feel better *laugh*

So here it is in all its glory. I just love it.

[kiarapanther]

Thanks. NOw if I could just get my SCA costume done *laugh*

whistles innocently.

[kiarapanther]

well its not my fault *mock whine* I lost the bodice piece in the move from Seattle. That was weeks of getting a supporting bodice made that didnt need boning. It was a masterpiece. *more whining* NOw if I could only find the paper pattern of the last fitting.

[florentinescot]

Oh, now that just sucks! I feel your pain. I was in pretty much the same boat. The costumers guild had a Fitting Day, and HRH and Maudie fitted me -- and then I lost it! *WAH* but it did finally turn up. Hope yours does too!

[kiarapanther]

Im hoping its in one of the boxes that has lots of papers in it. I havent really got through those since Ive moved from the west coast.

[florentinescot]

Oh, yeah. lookes at the boxes taunting her. I've got my books unpacked (finally). But I got a dozen boxes here of Random Paper Stuff (tm), and about that many Junque Boxes to unpack yet.

*sigh*

[kiarapanther]

yeah exactly. Finally got bookshelves to unpack the books after 2 years of being in boxes and three moves. Id finally gotten everytihng else except the books and the papers unpacked and we moved again, so behind me is the wall o boxes. *sigh*

[florentinescot]

I know, one of us an bring a box to Coronation, and we'll shred it In Effigy (for all those that taunt us!) :-D

[kiarapanther]

LOL. I might just do that.

[kiarapanther]

I just realized I have no idea what you look like. I have met you at an event already and not know it.

[florentinescot]

That's ok. Hopefully I'll have the brooches by then, but I"ll be under the Embroidery Guild pavilion in the b/w houndstooth Viking Apron. :-)

[kiarapanther]

okay cool!

[florentinescot]

see you then! :-D

[cuileanmical]

You lost your bodice? That is a Grave loss. I agree, That was a masterpiece. I hope you can find your pattern again.

[kiarapanther]

or Ill just start from scratch I guess. My whole upper body proportions have changed anyway....sigh..
