Ten more sleeps

to get my sewing done!

I got three T-Tunics done Sunday afternoon, had a slack day yesterday and got one pair of pants done tonight. I have another pair of pants cut out and pinned and need to get some more material tomorrow to do the last pair of pants. Then I need to do a shirt for Wolfstanus......

After that if I have time I will do two banners.......

The Yellow Cotehardie Lacing Holes are finally done!!!

Mind you I stayed up until 1am this morning doing them ;-) I checked to make sure it still fits as I began this project about 14 months ago! Thank goodness it does!!!

Will try and get Wolfstanus' lacing holes done tonight......now I just need a photo to put here! LOL

And still trying to get through the list.....

I have 18 days to do the following:
* 2 pairs of baggy pants for T
* 1 shirt and 1 pair of baggy pants for Wolfstanus
* 1 pair baggy pants for Gryffen
* Heraldic Tabard for T
* 2 x t-tunics for Kristy
* 1 T-tunic for Pete (I found one of Conrad's old one's that will fit him thus cutting down on sewing time)
* New banner for T
* New banner for Gryffen (due to design changes)
* Lacing holes have been cut for my cotehardie and Wolfstanus' cotehardie - just need to sew around them now!
* Need to look at headware for me
* Turtle brooches ordered and awaiting arrival (hopefully this week) for my Viking outfit ;-)

Hmmmm..........busy but doable!

Getting through the list......

slow and steady! Got the sleeves pulled out of my 'old favourite' heraldic cotehardie - since I have been going to the gym the sleeves are now too tight! I've decided for Border War to wear it sleeveless over a cotton voile underdress - should be a little cooler that way ;-) Eventually I want to add tie on sleeves.

Got the sleeves pulled out of Wolfstanus' two cotehardies - they were too tight but the rest of it fits fine. He can wear his sleeveless for now too and I will add tie on sleeves later. Also took the hem down on one of Gryffen's trousers so he can wear them a bit longer.

I've almost got my Viking apron dress done too - just need to hem it and get my turtle brooches ;-)
