I just love that she began her 'rebirth' in a room full of Coven members at CoCo last year. It says something about her intrinsic value that she managed to keep you distracted from cocktails for most of the evening. ;)
Oooh, I want to see your pretty restored Elna next sewing session.
And glad to see the cape is coming along so nicely. Machine pad stitching can be a great time saver. I still prefer doublet collars by hand, just for the curve factor which I've yet to get right by machine.
She is a beauty! And she stitches like a dream... :)
The curve of the collar was a challenge, and we'll see how it holds up over time - but considering the number of layers I have in there I think it will be up to the work. ;)
