Alison has lent me her bag of Ikea things, which has their speshul hex
keys. Fingers crossed this works with the aneboda set cos the table on top of the drawers
is just right without the set of drawers feet. Don't know if I'll get it done this week, as I'm a bit squiffy and shifting stuff increases
motion sickness. I ate too much cheese yesterday, pissed off my
innards.
The bad is that I popped into the
grotto tonight to find the fabric for my short gown ... so I could
pre-shrink it this week. However I simply couldn't find it. Which is
crazy cos I saw it 2 weeks ago, and would have sworn I put it in the
cupboard.
Not there, BUT ta-dahhhh I found the sleeves for my
nightie. Wahoo. They were in with a couple of unfinished projects. So
sorta, kinda in with like things. Alike in being unfinished projects,
not-alike in they're historical clothing and this was sleepwear. Though
very much from on a T chemise pattern. (Finding the sleeves was the
good)
So my dilemma now is what to use for the short gown. I'm
hoping to wear it at the end of June, so either finding the fabric,
picking another fabric, or not getting my working class regency done in
time are my 3 options.
Ooh, and I got help fitting the hobbit
bodice. Some dartage is inevitable, but it's worth having a well fitting
bodice when you're a shetland pony in human form. Will show pics of the
toile tomorrow.
