This week I continued to work on my 1868 dress. My bodice now looks like a bodice except that it needs darts. I didn't put on my corset to fit them Thursday night, choosing instead to be good and start pressing my new bolt of muslin. I got through about half of it. I suppose I should finish pressing that tonight, and then I can get back to sewing with a little less guilt.

The 18th century stockings progress, even though I haven't knit a stitch this weekend. I've only got about 75 rows left, and after 30 of those rows, they start decreasing fairly dramatically. I should be able to finish them in time for the Wilderness Trail Festival in three weeks. And I've ordered yarn for my 1937 wooly cami-knickers so I should be able to start on that as soon as I finish the stockings.

The cross-stitching progresses. I'll be glad when it's finished, and I can sew on the weekends too. Giving up three days worth of free time a week really cuts into how much you get done.
