So this is my project:
With all that embroidery and the cording on the corset, it seems like at least a years worth of work! I've started planning and preparing, and will share some more soon!
So I've decided that for 2011, I will give myself a 'Holy Grail' project to complete. Whats a Holy Grail project I hear you ask? Well, its a term I was introduced to on a fabulous website, www.yourwardrobeunlockd.com Basicly, a Holy Grail project is somethng that you've always wanted to make but have never attempted because its too complicated, too expensive or just too time consuming. But what better way to stretch yourself, motivate yourself and get that buzz of looking at something and saying 'I made this and I love it!' So this is my project: Its an 1830's dress which I saw on ebay a year or two ago and have gazed at longingly ever since. I also want to make a 1830's corset, probably a copy of one in Jill Salens book http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1906388016
