A year in costuming...
And because I don't have a ton to say, I thought I'd make a fun post of costumes I made this year:
It all started with the black Polonaise and underskirt:
Then came Ali's gown for Pirate Faire:
And my own pirate coat (though there are no good photos of it!) which totally should have been flatlined with another fabric
After that, a bit of a break, and I made the Sailboat Skirt:
Which led to making up the same pattern in bronze taffeta, to create this outfit:
And an alternate overskirt:
Then came Christmas presents for Mia and Emily: 1700's gowns with cloaks, fichus and accessories:
And then finally, the Made In Four Days 1860's ballgown and petticoat:
And I wonder what I've been doing this year! Geez...
On tap for next year:
1780's Romantic period portrait gown
Regency gown (one for Ali, possibly one for myself)
1880's riding habit
Possible early bustle evening gown
We'll see what the new year holds!
Merry Christmas!!
