I made it to Middlefaire here in Texas this Saturday. Gave me a chance to "Test Drive" my works.
In this I've made the chemise, the bodice and ties, the green skirt, and the golden yellow skirt (peeking out on the right)..the bloomers (not seen, but will post a pic later) and the brown pouch.
All came through quite well...no split seams...no frayed edges...no lost grommets...no open closures.
I will be changing out the boning int he bodice later...it had the "plastic" boning that I got from Hancocks...I prefer the cable ties or steel...since I already have precut steel, I think I will put that in. I am quite pleased with the finished results..since this is my first complete garb that made it out into the public eye. I did get some compliments on it.
SOOOOOOOO...Thanks to all those kind words and words of wisdom and support.
I had a good time, even though it was very small. the Faire I mean. You looked fabulous! I blame the camera on the picture, but it really isn't that bad.

I was at Joanne's with my Sister in Law and digging through their huge remnant bin, and came across it...the making of it i'm not sure..it is upholstery fabric, so probably some cotton and polyester blend. I fell in love with it...only had a yard...bought it with no clue on what I was going to do with it..and it ended up as my first bodice. I've got a better pic of the bodice posted under the heading of "Red Dotted Bodice" or something like that..LOL
Thank you for the compliment.

I'd like to show you some awesome nature related work from more or less unknown artists which deserve more attention - this is a must see, you won't regret it!!!
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
I'm a lover of visual impacts. I like brilliant colors and shapes. And I decided to collect a whole stack of deviations that reflect that taste. These pieces showcased below deserve every bit of publicity you can give them. x)P
