"Polka Dots and Moonbeams"

I've been on the productive side lately I'd like to think. I've worked on orders, projects, jewelry, reconstructions, alterations, repairs and much more. ... if there is much more than any of that!

"Bride" for Mimi 95% Completed
I call it at this because I underestimated how long it would take me to bind the bottom. However I finished one part of the binding in one sitting, so next time I have a nice quiet evening without cleaning, I'll be able to finish the rest of it. After this, it will be ready to return to Mimi and I'll be able to start on the Underbust I'm also making for her.

"Lillith" for Me 90% Completed
All that remains for this one is for the bias binding to be stitched down and the finished edges to be pressed. This corset has been in the works since before I got pregnant, which is why it was never finished :)

"Untitled B/W" for sale 50% Completed
Still waiting to be completed with boning and I need to finish embroidering the eyelets.

"Orient V 2.0" Prototype 90% Completed
I need to buy more ribbon to finish the bottom binding and this one will be complete.

"Pencil Skirt" for Jez 80% Completed
The skirt is constructed, I just need to schedule a fitting so I can take it in appropriately, sew the zipper and ribbon trimming and its all done!

"Custom 01" for Melanie 20% Completed
So far I have the corset pattern drafted, the skirt pattern worked up, and I'm waiting on some materials to arrive so I can begin to construct the corset and bodice, and next free day I have (Lillian's with the Grandparents or Godmother) I will construct the skirt.

I will be vending at the July 2nd Dark Dreams, "Darkness Falls" and I already have four completed corsets I plan to put up for sale, and hopefully the untitled black and white will be finished as well. I'm going to start (but possibly not finish...) six other corsets, I'm planning on bringing two Lillith's, two Abgails and two Bettie's in various sizes, colors and patterns to sell as well. But we'll see if I can get them all done. It's possible I'll only have a few more finished due to time constraints and material availability.

"Stag Gown" 80% Completed
All that remains on this reconstruct, is some beading on the stomacher, and for the skirt to be completed and it's all done! My next reconstruct will be my "floral" gown. I want to do a little work on the gown itself, then make a stomacher to match the green petticoat I have for it.
