Half-Stays

My 1790's stays are about half-complete. The eyelets and boning are finished, and I've sewn the pieces together on one side. I might finish assembling the pieces on the other side tonight, or I might give my fingers a break and cut the shorts for my playsuit and the lining for these stays tonight. We'll see. The goal is to be binding them at the Regency Society's sewing day on Saturday.



I'm also making good progress on my latest pinball project - I'm more than halfway through the first side. Not bad, considering I only started it on Saturday.

Pattern Disposal

Is there anyplace once can sell sewing patterns without setting up an Etsy store or something? I've been cleaning out my pattern collection and have a couple of dozen patterns that I know too much about the era ever to use. There are a couple of modern (or maybe 1990's) patterns I don't want either. If I can sell them, that would be great. Otherwise I guess I'll give them to the local community theater or high school theater department.
