The Challenge: 3 - Stashbusting
Fabric:
Silk organza, linen lace
Stashed for?:
The organza was bought in 2014 for underlining, the linen lace was bought in 2013 from a destash sale from the Embroiderers Guild if I remember correctly
Pattern:
None, I just cut out a circle, added the lace and then applied a drawing thread with zig zag.
Year:
1775 simply because the rest of the outfit is
Notions:
various threads
How historically accurate is it?
probably not at all, but I needed something to go on my hair for Armageddon to hide some of the first ever attempt at 18th century hair.
Hours to complete:
10 minutes
First worn:
today at Armageddon
Total cost:
Maybe $8?
I feel like it finished off the outfit nicely, although I have a calash I made last year it wasn't really suitable for an indoor event. I think technically it was too small, but it was so cute I don't care! I got stopped and asked for photo's by several people so I was pretty happy about that.
