What did I do last year?

Since everybody else is doing it, I thought I’d make a list of sewing accomplishments last year. It actually made me feel a bit better - I did more than I thought.


  • 14th and 15th Century Dress Construction articles - Ok, this was for me. It was my New Year’s resolution for 2007, and it was the one thing that I wanted to do before I felt I’d deserve the laurel everybody else told me I should want.
  • Jeff’s Laurel Gown
  • V-neck gown for me to wear for Jeff's laurelling (see pics above). Doesn't really count - I put together the main pieces by machine, and all of my friends did the hand work.
  • [livejournal.com profile] ladyaneira's v-neck gown (No pics yet – it’s hers to show off after Twelfth Night!)
  • [livejournal.com profile] ladyaneira's fitted dress, with lace (Ditto)
  • Helena's v-neck gown – Never got any pics
  • Kid shirt for Aaron’s birthday
  • Kid shirt for Henry
  • Started [livejournal.com profile] usagi629’s fitted dress, but then she dun got preggo. :-D
  • Hemmed a few napkins
  • Drafted several patterns by measurement (Yes, I know I still have some left. I’m really sorry and embarrassed about that. I’ll contact you privately.) It does work. Yay!
  • Made a quilted facing strip for a friend (sounds little, but it was all handwork and it took me almost a full day)
  • Felted an itty bitty little ball
  • G-63 for [livejournal.com profile] thatpotteryguy
  • Padded and quilted Jeff's 14th century doublet
  • Apron for my mom, with matching apron for my niece.
