I had more fun today then I think is legal. [livejournal.com profile] hiraimi and [livejournal.com profile] mandie_rw came over and we had a sewing day. We watched the first season of Outlander and snarked at all the poor charater choices, costumes, and questionable plot developments. We had five pots of tea (I think I peed 7 times), a box of cookies and ordered chinese food!

I did make SOME actual progress too. I made my fourth and final mock up, cut out my bodice in silk and linen and got the back and one side seam finished. I'm using the lapped seam/whipped in lining techinque from costume closeup. [livejournal.com profile] hiraimi Ran out of things to do so she whipped down my pocket slits and sewed my petticoat side seams. VERY nice of her.

So not as much done as if I'd actually sewed alone for a day...but way more than if we'd ended up at the ren faire! And I had a wonderful day laughing till tea almost came out my nose.
