Tosenin kosode project
Aug. 1st, 2007 06:18 amAss deep in rich silk
The hue of newly turned earth,
She plies her needle.
Though she hurries to finish,
Each neat stitch tutors patience.
(That was crap. What do you want for 6 AM?)
Status report:
Paint touch-ups were finished last night - the white really benefitted from it.
Back seam and okumi (overlap panels) seams were done before painting. Okumi edges have been rolled and finished. Eri (collar) is stitched in place on one side, but needs to be pressed and blindstitched down on the inside. Sleeves need to be sewn and attached. Side seams need to be run up. Why yes, I am hand sewing it. Of COURSE I'm hand sewing it, you barbarians!
Eye exam and laundry tonight come hell or high water. Might be nice if I got some packing done too, ya think?
