The pins that hold everything together, a definite necessity!
This is my jacket in an early stage of the "creation" process. :)
the pattern
I really love to sew. Especially era correct costumes for various events. For the past two years, I've been going to a Historical Ball. This gives me something to make a lovely,flowy dress for, and see what everybody else makes. Its super fun,and one of my favorite things to do each spring. (I can put up pictures later)
But I am working on this Victorian jacket, well, because I can! It's can be a bit frustrating,(my machine really tests my patience sometimes!) But overall, I love crafting up my own dresses and designing them. Sewing is becoming a lost art, which is really sad, but I'm glad that I have some friends who love it as much as I do!
Does anyone else enjoy sewing as much as I do? People daydream about all kinds things-food, clothes, styles, current events. Well, I think about, yep, you guessed it! Sewing! What my next endeavor will be, what type of fabric, what look I want, etc. It's true, Mollie. You were right. I am a tiny bit obsessed. Okay, maybe alot!

PLEASE post a picture of a costume you've made! I love to sew, too, but unfortunately haven't had much time for it in the past couple of years. It is a remarkable art, though, and it seems that you are very talented at it! I love the pattern and fabric you've chosen for this project.
