Shape without form, shade without colour
Colours for my latest project have been decided. I have a stash of beautiful brilliant blue silk dupion which was just waiting for the perfect project. For the embroidered plastron and skirt front I have decided instead to use a contrast fabric. A chocolate silk dupion fabric.
Something like this.... Minus the embroidery and please excuse my bad photoshop skills

New Dress Project
Well I have been avoiding sewing since November last year, and last night I got the sewing bug renewed. I began on another 1880's outfit.
This one to be precise. I drafted up and cut out the foundation skirt last night. I have not decided on colours, so any input would be awesome!
Pictures will follow soon, now that I am sewing in daylight hours :)

Do what you can, with what you have, where you are...
First things first. None of the photos to follow are owned by me. I am sharing these thanks to the completely inspiring, funny and AMAZING women. Kendi from Kendi Everyday and Katy fromKansas Couture. I hope they don't mind me posting these pictures, as they have been truly inspiring in helping me get dressed each day.
