A Nice Fit
Need I even
say that I really
do love making
dollys? There is nothing I like, or can appreciate more than a well fit!
Ladye Jane quietly said that she would 'prefer a new set of stays to match my pet en
l'air, as Suzy
Bellingham is having one made up in Rochester, and it would just be very nice to have the latest' .......how could I say no?
I patterned the hand stitching on the front from a beautiful mid 18
th c corset. I was going to cover the seams with a
teensy lace trim, but I like the stitching to show, so I left it plain.
Robings all done,
Ladye Jane is ready to
receive her afternoon guests~

ReplyDeleteOh and I remembered what I was going to say in an earlier post... I'm sorry for the finger pokes, but I know exactly how you feel! My fingers are permanenty scarred with needle stabs, and it really hurts when the dull end of the needle pops through the skin... ouch!!!
