A fitting
Last night I fit a friend for a c15 Venetian gamurra bodice. This was my first solo fitting and I think it went fairly well all things considered. Her shoulders aren't at all even and, due to some back issues, one actually points forward. Thank goodness draping is my strong suit.
She's excited about making her new dress and I'm excited for her. She says that if it comes out well, she will tell everybody who helped her. I asked that if it doesn't turn out well, she not tell anyone. :)
So. She has a useable toile and I ~almost~ have a renewed desire to make some Venetian clothes. Almost.
