Sep. 2nd, 2006 04:13 pmSo, er...pattern drafting. Tweaking will have to occur before it looks like what I want it to look like, but I remain undaunted.
I finally decided my hand sewing technique was up to scratch enough to finally use my nice silks and satins, and I picked out some really nice stuff for a 1914 doll dress, but the muslin tester dress went really abominablly, so I'm not sure what to do now. Maybe I'll do a Victorian doll dress for my first foray into silks. For some reason, fussy Victorian dresses seem to be my forte!
I hate the Emmys. I always have. I never, ever watch them. This year, however, a combination of boredom and curiosity led to me to watch. Mistake. Again and again, Bleak House, the best thing on TV in ages, was passed over for the worst thing I've seen on TV in ages, HBO's Elizabeth I. Now, I didn't mind when it lost to The Girl in the Cafe, which was actually intelligent and well written, and about something important. But Elizabeth I for crying out loud! ( Intelligent viewers choose Bleak House! )
