back on the wagon...err horse

[robinsnest]

So after accomplishing NOTHING of my huge list yesterday (and not even grocery shopping, I'm so bad I know). I actually got up at 7am this morning and after poking the internet for a bit I made two really quick bustles for Cairnwood. I made them smaller than mine, because they're only going to use them to display this one particular woman's clothing..and she's just plain a lot smaller than me...but looking at them I'm not sure I got it right, so fingers crossed on that one. I still need to make the pad parts to fill-out the top (using curiouschilde's brilliant easy bustle method), but I'm out of fiberfill and as I have errands to run later I'm gonna just get it while I'm out and make them tonight, I'll be back over there tomorrow or Thursday anyway.

So the plan is after some lunch head over to madamekat's to grab a skirt she's nicely lending us, then head over to Cairnwood to drop everything off, stay and help out till 4 at which point I head home to avoid the traffic. Then I'll stop and grocery shop and buy fiberfill on the way home...woohoo.

Ok Kat.. that's awesome.. where did you find the pattern for that one?

Thanks! It's from the Laughing Moon bustles pattern package. I made the smallest one and the one that supports a train.

Thanks so much for the sentiment but part of the reason for making two quick basic ones is so that I can leave them with Lisa for future use :-) Thus eliminating the need to borrow. They don't need to be pretty, just functional!
