I have some actual deadlines/goals for this year:
- One full 1873 ensemble. New corset, dress, and skirt supports will be needed. I can/will probably end up using 1850s chemise and drawers, since this is a one-day event. And indoors, so outerwear isn't as urgent.
- One full 1909 ensemble. Dress, corset, supports.. Suffrage event in summertime. I'm going to need one of those huge hats....
In my usual eras:
1570s: I would like a better-fitting kirtle and gown, but I'll settle for having 3 shifts and a pair of comfortable garters in time for fair.
18th century: Finish the cape, maybe mess around with the short gown pattern if I have time.
Regency: No goals, though I'll flag re-sizing dresses and upgrading my petticoat as the most needful things. Though I still would like a pelisse...
1850s: It's past time to focus on making new chemises and drawers. No other goals for this period, since those need to come first.
mid-20th century: Some warmer wool skirts for daily wear would be lovely, and maybe another split skirt for the summer.
Other:
I'm enjoying the machine knitting and intend to make a lot more socks, hopefully working out those square heels.
I'd also like to try making 1 pair of shoes.
Getting my research projects posted and my blog drafts down below 50. (Currently: 95).
