Project updates

Cote #2: I have all the parts of HRH Rapier armor cut out.  Piecing the stripes is the most difficult part of this armor, as all the stripes must go the same way.  I laid out all the pieces on the bed this morning and had a moment of serious panic when I though the back panels were wrong.  Then my subconscious remembered that this is how it was supposed to be.The pieces are designed in such a way as the sleeves will be appropriately counter-changed: stripes with the yellow, yellow with the stripes.  Panic averted. This armor still needs to be sewn together, though all the pieces have been cut and buttons have been located.

Cote:


Cassock (now with buttons, but sadly no sleeves yet):

Wow, that's a LOT of buttons. ;-)

BTW - you are the queen of the stripe-y. I bow down.

RUM now looking like Nov 20th. How does that potentially fit your schedule?
