Guess what I should be doing right now.

Yup.

Drawing.

But today feels like a fabric day, a sunny, breezy easy day. I did WANT to draw, but I couldn't focus and ended up writing for ages in my 'real' diary. The kind with pages and everything. Anyway, I got a picture of my skirt, and because I'm too lazy to put it on photobucket I'm just going to have a link to in on my website. http://www.freewebs.com/behindthetapestry/currentfutureprojects.htm
The problem is I really haven't gotten very far with this Very Final Drawing. I know it's the last one, and I know I should make it perfect, but this is a literature day! Not an art day! Goodness, I need to exersise more self control and make the day what I need it to be instead of how I 'feel' it is. *sigh* I was going to say something else but it's escaping me. Ta ta for now!

i'm totally feeling you on the drawing slackerdom.

I've been at it all day though and haven't really gotten anything done. Grumble.

The skirt looks great so far! :-)

I was looking at your other costumes - and is that Italian Renaissance gown a Mccall pattern? It looks just like my very first costume (after the jedi costume)!

I love your regency gowns! :-)

Let me know when you get to the Violet B costume - it's on my list for when I finish the picnic costume!

Thank you!

Lol, yes, the Italian Renaissance is a McCall's pattern. It was my third thing sewn, and I didn't really know anything about altering patterns or drafting my own. Still, I think someday I might redo it so it at least fits properly and has a chemise! Nothing I can do about the darts though...but it did teach me a great deal.

Oh, and trust me, when I start Violet's dress, EVERYONE will hear about it. ;) We'll just have to see who gets to it first!

I thought so! I didn't know anything about costumes when I used it either - it was a good starting pattern to learn on though! :-)

I've been kind of gathering stuff for the Violet costume, but I haven't really started it yet! I'm still trying to figure it out! But I got a study page up for it at least and I have shoes! :-)
