Knitting on Hold

Yep, that's right. Although I've been knitting here and there, aI now have a major undertaking. The Hubbster and I are planning to go to Lonely Mountain, a local SCA event in July. This means I have some garb to make! I'm planning to make an Italian renaissance dress, which is quite a big undertaking. Here's a general idea of what I want my dress to look like. I'm currently working on a type of corset that doesn't use boning- it's going well! I'm definitely excited, and am enjoying sewing again, if if it does mean that it takes time away from my knitting. I may start a "dress diary" as well, and chronicle my adventures in sewing for this. Wish me luck! Side note: The "10 items or less" lane at Wal-Mart is NOT the place to buy $200 worth of groceries. Bitch.
