I skimped on the number since I figured this is for a kirtle that won't be seen under the dress but still, the pulling is bothering me. Of course, now that I have some lacing holes I'll have to put in twice as many if I want to do something about it. ugh.
Still I like the fit of this bodice better than any of my others, and the apple green bias binding came out pretty as well.
And witness the failed straping experiment! It looks ok on this so I'll leave it on, but I'm not going to do the undersleeves this way anymore. What's with the wrinkle? Looks like my outer layer of silk needs some securing. Careful - boobs in pic are smaller than they appear!
AAAAARRRGGHHH! The pulling! THE PULLING!!
I also took some other shots of this that would have been more illustrating but they came out blurry. Harumph.
Now I need to make a new farthingale before I can do anything else on this.
