I hope you all had a good start into 2011!
As I have neglected this blog so much in the last time "more blogging" will be one of my projects for the new year ;)
My first project will be a new 1760's suit for my hubby. He needs it for his new living-history-character, a councilman of an imperial city. He already has a black culotte but needs a black Justaucorps and a rich waistcoat. I have begun to make some silver bobbinlace for this waistcoat but I do not know if it will work well.
Our other big project will be a wardrobe for 1811. We will have two events set in 1811 this year, so it's worth to sew some stuff for it.
A frock and a coat for my hubby and a dress, a coat and of course a very big bonnett for me.
For the dress I already have a model. It needed to be something non-white, because I will have to wear it in a village-museum which is always muddy. I want to realize it in a thin woolen fabric, so that it is a bit warmer than cotton.

An other thing I have in mind is a small 1910-wardrobe for me, but I don't know if I will have the time to realize this and it is uncertain if I will be able to attend the event I intend it for. But anyway I think that one can easily wear this styles today. I especially like this painting and would like to sew the dress on the right.
