I did some sewing. I now have a wearable 1890s petticoat. It could use a flounce, but that's lower on the priority list right now. I wanted to get so much done over the holidays. I'm not sure it'll be possible because I'm so busy with stuff going on and being lazy. But I can definitely get a good chunk of it done still. Next is corset cover.

On the plus side, this cotton poplin is really nice for a petticoat. It's a bit heavier than lawn, but it has way more body. I'm getting a nice skirt shape from it, even without the flounce. :)

Yay sewing!!!

Where did you get the cotton poplin from?

Just from the local fabric chain, Fabricland. It was originally a really deep orange and I un-dyed it to make it peach.

Oh that sounds so easy to get hold of for you :-) So much nicer to be able to feel the fabric before you buy it isn't it.

LOL undyed. Yup btdt. Sounds like it came out nicely!
