2009-07-04 09:31 pmSignificant amounts of time spent in the sauna, and in discussing the sauna, and in figuring out the best way to lay the fire(s) to get the best possible sauna experience twice in an evening, or once in an evening.
There is much to be thought about.

In other news, my new broade kirtle has the skirt half-attached. I am still figuring out how to do the front half nicely. Tomorrow I expect to have the skirt whipstitched to bodice leaving only hemming and attaching shoulder straps together.
The long-sleeved GFD, cut using Mathilde's pattern, is wearable. Front closing is looking gorgeous (faced on the inside with red silk) and the neckline has a narrow turned in hem. I can now sew myself into the dress, fake the hemming of the sleeves, and if I just sort the lower hem I can pass for medieval.
No more progress on the green short-sleeved GFD. Maybe I'll throw it under the machine tomorrow. We'll see.
