atherleisureNothing monumental happened this week so this is another "week in review" post.
I worked on my 1868 dress that I cut last week. The skirt is ready to be pleated to the waistband, but I want to wait until the bodice is put together to set the length of the waistband. The false three-piece back has been sewn, and I started putting on the eyes. I've only got two on so finishing hooks and eyes and other bodice work will probably take most of the week. I finished the heel flap on my second 18th century stocking, and I made good cross-stitching progress on my husband's lady. All in all, a pleasing week, even if it wasn't very exciting.
I also washed my new bolt of muslin but am avoiding pressing it. Now I have a heap of fabric in my storage closet that I make faces at every time I go in there.
