The turtle can see the finish line!
Jan. 22nd, 2007 11:37 amGot lots done on the pink effigy bodies over the weekend. All my boning is in, pieces are joined, seam allowances (semi-)neatly stitched down, lacing edges finished.
All that's left is the edge binding and lacing holes.
"All that's left?" I hear you cry? Yes, I know lacing holes and edge binding are the most tedious and time-consuming parts, especially since I am lacing this up front AND back (I won't be the same size by summer) but since this is a grand experiment, I'm probably going to use grommets instead of hand-bound holes. And the binding, I can do while I watch tv at night if Claire will not interrupt me every 2 seconds. Big IF, I know...
