(PLEASE don't think that I'm going to inundate you with posts)
I've had such a successful end of week and weekend, so now there will a bit of a lull while I get on with the actual construction of the coats, but I really wanted to share this with you:
I've got the calico toile finished, with lining and interfacing in place, and have worked through a few of my anxieties. The design is going to be a great choice and there are enough stitched sections to cover all of the pattern pieces.
I've now set to and begun the construction of the coats themselves. I thought it might be easier for you to see what I'm up to in a short video rather than loads of photos ... so here's hoping this downloads or uploads or whatever it's supposed to do ... lol ... xxx
I'll probably be back in touch again at the beginning of November, by which time I hope to have the majority of the fabric for the pattern pieces stitched together and cut to shape, then it's just a question of creating the 2 coats which will stand facing each other ... and writing the blurb for the catalogue and exhibition literature, then working out an exhibition schedule and venues, advertising, etc, etc ... but I mustn't get ahead of myself ... one thing at a time. I hope you enjoy the video, and I'll be in touch again in a couple of weeks.
