Welcome to the Misguided Seamstress

Pictures

I've finally gotten some pictures to show you of the work that I've been doing.  I told you that I would get some up.  Unfortunately, I have no pictures yet of my completed gown.
:( but I do have a few of the sleeves and will post them.

So, onto pictures!!

This is my friend Jane and the corset that I made for her.  This pic was taken at one of our rehearsals and the reason she has on hat and horns is she came from the anime convention that was in town.  Lookin' great Jane!


This is Aaron, our court jester.  The hat and jinglies were made a couple of years ago, but the shirt (which is hard to see right now) is new.  I'm finishing up the pants that match.




Jane in her complete outfit.  The underskirt is separate from the forepart and the overshirt is also separate from the bodice.  You can see that the sleeves lace on and are open to keep her cool on our hot days at faire.  She has a doublet that matches and that can be worn separate from the bodice.  Green looks very good on her.  What is hard to see is the green is a jacquard and a lighterweight upholstery fabric.  It's swirly.


This will give you an idea of the sleeves.  I'm hoping to get a full picture today of the complete gown on the form.  I'll let you know!
