In fact, I haz quite a lot of sewing...
One pair of Victorian drawers: pattern slightly altered to close crotch seam
One Vivtorian chemise. Needs sleeves finishing and hem fixing.
One Truly Victorian corset, circa 1880's. Some lace and ribbon trim
needed to pretty it up, but basically it's finished
One bustle cushion: about 10 minutes' work. Does it count?
One bridesmaid frock converted to Victorian style skirt.
One bodice to wear over skirt: fitting today, and the sleeves need
making up and putting in. Then the lace trim goes on the bodice.
This one should go out the door next Friday.
Also need to draft and make the toile for a Regency style pelisse for
Sunday afternoon fitting... I can use PMB for the bodice and the
sleeves, and just extend the skirts. Won't take long.

culinary masterpieces.

This week I read three books and learned how to put the cap ends on
spiral steel corset bones!

Well, this evening it was 64 lengths of the pool (1 mile), followed by
haggis, sweet potato and butternut squash mash, and cabbage. Tomorrow's
dinner is chicken soup (I can let the stock simmer while I sew) with
home made bread rolls, and Sunday is supposed to be butternut squash and
goat cheese strudel...
