Well, I started on my mockup of Eowyn's corset. I'm going to have it lace completely up the back and add a modesty panel. I need to add the wings or caps to the shoulders. I'm also going to add an inch to the shoulder seam to drop the bust line and add an inch to the length. The waist was a perfect fit. Here it is so far...

Okay, so I couldn't decide between drafting Eowyn's brown corset or Harry Potter's robe next. I'm going to construct both at the same time : ) This should be interesting. I hope I don't get too confused!

Yay! I finished my Jack Sparrow vest / weskit! I'm thrilled with how it turned out!! I had to alter the mockup a little...I cut the vest smaller and added the back laced pieces for a better fit.


Now that it's finished, I think I'll list it on ebay : )

I'm going to draft Harry Potter's POA robe next. Woo hoo!

Yay! I just need to add the buttonholes and buttons on the pockets and down the front. I think I'll place the pockets a few inches lower on my weskit. The length is perfect, though.

I've been working on the weskit today. I like how it's turning out but it's too big for me : ( It'll fit a man's size 40 chest. So, I'll finish this weskit and then cut the pattern down to fit me.

I started on my Jack Sparrow pirate style weskit. I drafted the muslin mockup up and then started on my first version of the weskit.

This is the weskit design that I plan on altering this week. This is a size XXL and I need to cut it down. It should be easy enough. I want it to look more like Jack Sparrow's weskit. I found the perfect fabric.

fin! I finished the Pirate Coat inspired by the character Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean. I love how it turned out.

I've decided to put the Weskit on the design board next. I've already got a good design but it's an XXL so I need to resize it. Should be fun and a lot quicker than the coat.

I should have pictures of the finished pirate coat tomorrow : ) YAY!

I still have to attach the lining, tack the side vents, make front buttonholes and attach buttons. I should be finished in no time : )

I've been out of commission for a few days and should get back into the swing of things this weekend.
