Pennsic project updates
Jun. 24th, 2009 11:22 amYesterday was remarkably productive. I am currently ahead of schedule. Linen is going down, garments are going up. Today is technically a sewing day off, but if my lungs do not start cooperating... there will be no fencing tonight (for the record, breathing is NOT overrated).
I have been struggling with down time. I was filling the bus/car rides/hanging out with people with the waffenrok embroidery and then favor embroidery. I think I found my solution... I can work on sleeve ties. Those pesky things need to be hand sewn as I am not using cord. I need 8 ties (4 bows) per sleeve, I have 8 sleeves, and I can get one done per bus trip. In theory, I can get them all done in 32 days. One down, 63 to go.
And I have just come to the realization I need more buttons. Finding good quality, boring metal buttons is hard. Sigh... its always about the buttons.
