I've planned out my year and am posting is here to keep me accountable. I'm sure I'll waffle and maybe even change a few things, but at least it's in writing to make sure I participate. I've only done one sort-of challenge SO 2015 will be my year of hardcore historical sewing.
2015 as follows:
January - Foundations - 1760s stays, mid-18th century shift
February - Colour Challenge Blue - blue pocket hoops
March - Stashbusting -Colourful striped polonaise. The fabric is ridiculous and I love it. It's not natural, but whatevs. I've promised my husband I'd work on his 1932 smoking jacket. The polonaise can wait :(
April - War & Peace - 1930s dress
May - Practicality - Regency apron
June - Out of your Comfort Zone - Regency corset (Hrmph!)
July - Accessorize - late 18th century hat
August - Heirlooms & Heritage - Traditional Welsh Costume
September - Colour Challenge: Brown - Regency dress
October - Sewing Secrets - I could be clever and say it's a secret, but really, I just haven't decided yet.
November - Silver Screen - Jacket worn by Elizabeth Bennet in the 1995 mini-series 'Pride and Prejudice'. THIS. Swoon.
December - Re-do - Probably foundations, but I'll wait and see which one I screw up before deciding ;)
