Jul. 15th, 2009 02:58 pmPennsic panic- Today's lesson
I attached the waffenrok top to the waffenrok bottom. Not an easy task. There were over 100 pinned pleats to take 108 inches of fabric to 36 inches. Also the waffenrok top, has "ribbons" to band the puff and slash. All of this has to line up. I got everything together, fitted on Matt, hung it on a hanger and then had the "hmmmmm..." moment.
( More... )
The lesson? Same as the last serious lesson. You have to listen to your garment. It will tell you what's wrong. In the end, the garment is happier, and you are happier.
More on the fire suits
( woo hoo textile artillery )
