Effigy Progress (with pics!)

Jan 23, 2009 00:22

Well, while we watched Smallville, and two episodes of CSI (last week's and tonights), I also got the back seams hand sewn on the effigy bodies.

And I also have pics of the latest progress.









Or if you want to see the whole thing, click here.

I thought I would be a little short on the back seams, but they ended up flush at both ends, so I guess all is good.

Next up is trimming a few of the bones to make room for the waistline eyelets, then sewing on the eyelet strips so I can try this thing on, and confirm the slashed portions (which also need to be cut) of the tabs, take pics of that to confirm slash ends, then finish the sewing of one ends, finally bind the whole thing, then make up the real eyelets which will take me awhile (cuz I can only do so many before they drive me batty). Hopefully, I will finish the whole thing this weekend.
