Thoughts and ramblings of just another girl

Projects updated

There are days when I hate my job. Today is one of them. Too much work that needs to be done, all of it rather banal and annoying. So instead I'm updating all of my various blogs! As one does.

In process project update~

1. Pewter token for Blayney. DONE! YAY! Of course, now I want to try and make a better one, with my other mold, and that will be the one that Hrothgar gets as well. In fact, i've made an lj entry about it all with photos here http://deense.livejournal.com/551845.html

2. Purple German dress~ Black edging on all around the neck. In the process of binding seams (one down, two to go, I used the selvage for one seam). Next are the sleeves and the hem. Sleeves I'm not looking forward to, but D has offered to help. YAY! Then underdress. Hrm. Must finish before Pennsic.

3. Black & White Cote~ Has completely stalled. Have to do white buttons for the white sleeve i've decided, i'll work on those on Thursday night, and on the train to the gong this weekend. Must still fell or bind seams, and do hem, and D has offered to do sleeve buttonholes for me. Thank the gods. How do I find such cool friends?

4. Tunic/Pants for Athol. Half done, need hemming and finishing. Should get that finished Saturday morning.

Future Projects

1. Going to look at stuff at Art's this weekend, maybe get a start on it.

2. Tablet weaving, K& G have extra loom they can lend me! YAY!

3. Green cote & Black kirtle~ Post pennsic project

4. Shoes~ Post pennsic project

5. Red & Gold silk bliaut~ Will start work on this soon, along with a new linen underdress. Another must be finished before pennsic project.

6. Armour. Alfar is getting leather for this. Will do patterning before pennsic, hopefully soon, but real work won't start til after pennsic. Should do gambeson though, and soon. Argh. At some point.

Wow. When do I have time to fit in a life? Yet somehow I manage.

    Go you! We will add much more to the list when you come down on the weekend to do roman.

    Also, if you're doing german, you should consider silly puff'n'slash german shoes.

    Not that I'm obsessed with silly shoes.

    I think the idea of the silly puff and slash shoes sound great! And they'll match my sleeves!

    Nope. Not obsessed at all!
