Alberta Ferretti S/S 2017

Are you still doing the mini-tutorial thingies? If so, could you please do one on people holding hands? Drawings hands is hard already, but I've recently realized that two interlaced hands are even harder to draw X_x

Okay, this is going to look like a “how to hold hands” tutorial so y'all can laugh at that, but I find that the best way to figure things like this out is sometimes to think through the interactions necessary to get into the position.  So here we go.

As for drawing hands in general, yeah, that’s a whole other kettle of fish. u_u

DIY Outlander Inspired Cosplay Pattern Series by American Duchess for Simplicity 

If you’ve been looking for affordable sewing patterns for 18th century Cosplay dresses or a pattern for a corset, this is the post for you. These are patterns for beginners, and all notions needed for these garments can be found at fabric stores.

The pattern sizes range from Size 6 to Size 22.

What’s included in the 2 patterns?

With the restrictions on the patterns - things like tissue size and complexity/length of instructions - we came up with two pattern packets that work together: the underpinnings packet with a chemise, bum pad, and stays; and the ensemble packet with a gown, petticoat, bodice, and stomacher.

You can find the American Duchess’ post on her Outlander Inspired Cosplay Patterns here. 

Also, the Amercian Duchess’ now has a series of Outlander Pattern Hacks posted here. The pattern hack series already has several posts (including one on corset stays), and will eventually include:

Hand-stitched eyelets instead of metal grommets

Creating robings and closing the bodice with pins

Interior lacing, buttons, and other bodice closures

Drafting and applying a 1740s winged cuff

Redrawing bodice seams and stays boning patterns

Drafting skirting for the bodice, to create a jacket

Extending the front edges for a center front closure

Setting sleeves with the 18th century method

Fitting through the side back seams the mantua maker’s way
