Mad mad mad mad mad
Aug. 18th, 2011 11:08 pmJust finished sewing neckline and front of 14th C fitted dress.
Time to start the eyelet lineup. What fun.
So, as I am half way handsewing through the first of 25 eyelets (approximately), any tips or recommendations for those with limited eyelet experience*? Yes, they are all going to be hand sewn, cause even if I metal eyeleted them, they are down the front so you would need to oversew them anyway.
I am not thinking about the sleeves yet, and the fabric buttons needed for that...
(Deadline: 10 Sept... for the outfit)
*Ok, so tents and 12th C fitted gowns and some mediocre tudor probably count a bit...
