A Week's Progress
Oct. 7th, 2013 06:21 pmThis week I finished my first buckram and wire hat frame. It may just be a child's witch hat for Hallowe'en, but it will be good practice for making a proper hat or bonnet. I also managed to cover one side of the brim. If things go at least reasonably well, it should be finished this week and with it my maternal Hallowe'en obligations. Then I can get back to the much more interesting historical sewing.
In knitting news, I finished the front piece (or maybe the back piece - they're the same) of my 1937 cami-knickers. Maybe I will have them before it really gets cold after all. It's nice to see that project moving along faster than I had anticipated.
I'm also getting close to the end of my husband's cross-stitched lady. I might be done with her by the end of the month. Then again, I might not, but I'm determined to finish her before the holidays. Then I won't have three nights a week tied up with that.
It's nice seeing all the projects going along so well.
