Free corset drafting tutorial

In case you haven't seen this yet, Cathy Hay aka harmanhay has developed this fantastic tutorial on drafting your own size corset from any historic pattern.  And it's absolutely free!!  Head on over to Foundations Revealed, the new sister site to YWU, to download the pdf.  And if you share with a friend or two, you get a free bonus chapter. 
If you're not already a subscriber to these sites, I highly recommend signing up while your there.  for $14.95 (u.s) you get a subscription to both sites.  I anticipate FR. to be just as wonderful as YWU. 

Yeah. The icon's meant to be ironic.....

I'm certainly not as fast as my friend up there, but I've got a wee bit of sewing news to report. 

I actually started sewing E's faerie costume!  Unbelievable, I know.  I didn't get as much done tonight as I would have liked, but you gotta know when to quit.

And it this isn't the sewing gods screaming QUIT!!!! I don't know what is. 


Yes my friends, that is a bent needle lying  on that c.d. fanny pack.  How did it get so bent out of shape you ask?
( Why, sewing this of course! )
