2019 Resolutions in Review

On the 7th Day of Christmas, I got introspective about my 2019 costuming resolutions. This time last year, I wanted to complete:  

Late 18th century chemise, maybe one more 16th century smock [de-prioritized since my early 1800s will do, and I haven't completed other 18th century gear]
That linen gown*
Partlet
Tablet-Woven Garters* [maybe next year]
Another pair of turnshoes [still needed, hopefully for next summer]

1770s corset* [nope, got the supplies though!]

Empire ballgown remade
Dancing slippers [in progress]
Bib-front Empire dress*

1848 Dress and Bonnet [bonnet form made up]

Fix mid-19th century corset [repeatedly, replacement in progress]
New sets of 1850s undergarments
Braidwork coat* [some preliminary planning complete]
Blue Wool* Sleeves Reworked
Black or red plaid wool worked up* [some work done]
Gaiters*
That knitting apron*

1890s corset*

Items completed that were not on the list:
1790s Short Stays
Regency Shoe Roses
16th century apron
1830s reticule
1840s Walking Parasol
Plaiting kit
The Eternal 1850s Chemisette
16th Century Infant Clothes
Elizabethan Hood with Bongrace
1857 Opera Gown (complete, to be posted)
And 18 medieval to early 19th century hair coverings
