Blommers

These were the first winners of my UfO raffle: Bloomers I started during my diploma thesis - back in 2011. At this time I didn’t have a sewing machine and hand-stitching all these seams for the cuffs let me loose motivation soon.

But now with the new/old sewing machine they were finished at three evenings. The pattern is called “Madeleine”; a free pattern from Colette Patterns. I extended the length of the leg so they end shortly above the knee.

Yesterday a dear colleague and good friend of mine had her masters defense. Because she really liked my Octoplushes I made one for her with a graduate cap.

This tutorial already crossed my way several times. At first I could resist it but then a good friend of mine had some spare fur fabric.

The first octopi (black and neon green) was for her.

The second one matches my brown-olive steampunk ensemble but the head ist a bit too big. Maybe I’ll make him a new one later.

New wardrobe - Kallaina - WIP part 3

This is the last teaser for the new steampunk outfit. It’s ready for the Multiperiod-Picknick on Saturday.

But bevor the whole thing will be revealed I can tell you the name of the ensemble: Kallaina, derived from the Greek word for the gemstone turquoise.

I’m still working on the new steampunk outfit. The corset has already arrived. Waistcoat and overskirt are finished.

It’s really quiet these days at this blog because I’m working on a new steampunk outfit. Here’s a little WIP collage.
