Démodé

historical costume projects & resources

While I haven’t really done any sewing

progress is being made. I’ve been buying supplies for the Talma wrap — just won some white cotton velveteen on ebay, plus I got some 4″ rayon chainette fringe from M&J Trimming in NYC (which I’m hoping to maybe do some knotting on) and some red velvet ribbon to trim it. Also got some white velvet ribbon with which to decorate my hat, and little necessities like white twill tape (for the overskirt bustle poofs) and silver hooks & eyes (for some reason, all I had was black which wouldn’t work well on this fabric).

As soon as Halloween is over, I’ll be back on track… I’m glad the tea is at the end of the month!
