Merino vs. Blue Faced Leicester | Can't Talk, I'm Dy(e)ing Shop
https://canttalkdyeingshop.wordpress.com/2010/06/15/merino-vs-blue-faced-leicester

Isabel Northwode Costumes: 1780s Stays: the Making Of
http://isabelnorthwode.blogspot.com/2015/06/1780s-stays-making-of.html
The Louisbourg Gown and Stomacher. Saturday, 13 June 2015. 1780s Stays: the Making Of.

With the mockup finished, I made the relevant alterations to the pattern and traced it out into a final version. Needless to say, I would request that no one use this pattern without my permission). With the pieces cut and all layers sa...

Isabel Northwode Costumes: March 2015
http://isabelnorthwode.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
The Louisbourg Gown and Stomacher. Thursday, 26 March 2015. Corset try-on, and TV show musings. Half-done the flossing (well, maybe more like 2/3.woops. Meant to do a fitting before this). Before I finish flossing and binding it and go past the point of no return, I wanted to do a quick try-on to make sure that everything was as it should be. It fits great, and so far it's very comfortable! I had to put in two laces to get it wide enough to do myself, though. . Also, in tv show news. Is great, though!
