hmm so it's a week...

we leave for Williamsburg in a week *looks at piles of stay pieces* hmmm and I was gonna try and make more than just stays huh.....well THAT is apparently a pipe dream. I WOULD still like to make two stomachers and a petticoat? maybe? 

Currently the stays have all the boning channels sewn and I just finished all fucking fifty million 52 eyelets.  *ahem* don't let me do that again. Monday I got as many bones in as I could before I ran out of boning and my new roll arrived yesterday so tomorrow I should be able to get all the bones in and try it on...then I guess make any alterations I need to and then maybe possibly start binding them? I'm well aware they will probably be unbound at first wearing. 

wish me a very productive tomorrow..

You can do eeet! My tip: if you do get to binding, do the top edge first so you don't have lil stray threads poking up out of your neckline. She says, speaking from personal experience...
