Pennsic project-s update

Yesterday was a bad breathing day, so I got an extra hand sewing day into the mix. I was able to make headway into the sleeve ties, only to realize that the new fencing armor needs ties too... Sometimes I really want to take short cuts. I mean, you don't see the ties. I could use a D ring on one side and one set of ties on the other, thus eliminating the need to do ties by 1/2. Then the other side of my brain kicks in and says, "you've gone this far, just do the darn ties". We shall see how many actually get done before pennsic. I might be a couple of sleeves short for a dress.

Updates:
1. Pickle Dress: trimmed one sleeve, sewed 8 sleeve ties.



2. Kampfrau Armor: attached lining to skirt, cut all trim and ties.

3. Trim: found 2nd bag of buttons.

Currently I am still ahead of schedule.
