atherleisureI needed more slips so I bought some silk charmeuse when it was on sale last year. In January I sat down one day and cut out two slips from a 1940's pattern I have and then realized that there was also a pattern for tap pants in there so I cut a pair of those too. Then I remembered that I wanted to make the Wearing History 1930's low-backed bra so I cut that out too. It took me a few weeks to work through it all, but I finished all the pieces probably in March.
There are two slips, but I only took a picture of one since they're identical. I still have a couple of yards left, but that was enough wiggly silk for awhile.
I am not sure the bra came out quite right. I scaled it down from 38" to 36", but it still seems like the edges come way closer together in the back than the pattern image shows. It is possible that I'll have to adjust whenever I get around to making the 1930's evening dress I want. That will be awhile because I don't have the fabric for it yet.
