Yesterday's sewing! A little corset cover with a bust ruffle, a sort of old-time type of padding to achieve that iconic Edwardian silhouette. But also because I was just curious about how it worked and had small scraps of this very thin and soft cotton laying about. Still needs a waistband and buttons, and for me to finish the basted hems by hand, later.

I'm purposefully doing the hems and placket by hand so I have something to keep my hands occupied while I enjoy my shows, but that means I want to finish at least the button placket before I put on the waistband, so who knows what order I'm going to do things in, or when. But certainly I've got something to do when I do!

Oh, I'm also experimenting with a travel bustle pad. Maria from Sew Through Time had one in a recent video, where it was a sort of flat plane with ruffles on it, that you then made into a more 3D shape when you pulled the drawstring and it looked like one could make it entirely out of cotton and wash and iron it without issue, which is not true of any of the padded pillow type bustle pads. We'll see!

@valhalla Yes, that one! It seems like such an improvement over various little pillows that are a hassle to wash and store

@sinituulia that looks like a great idea!

@artbyailbhe I do not require much padding on the caboose and yet I yearn for more padding on the caboose! I'd just like it to be more practical!

@sinituulia @artbyailbhe there is always room for more padding to the caboose!
and if there isn't, it means that the skirt isn't wide enough!
(maybe. I suspect that there is a practical limit, even for victorian skirts :D )

Perché Epstein è un guaio serio per Trump
@giornalismo

Se vi aspettate che dai “file” su Epstein emerga una foto o un video di Trump che fa sesso co una minorenne vi sbagliate, non accadrà. Ma se vi aspettate che Trump riesca con diversivi e minacce a uscire indenne anche da questo scandalo vi

@LeleGroot vero! Valeva la pena!
In effetti chi ha una certa consapevolezza sull'arcipelago, secondo me, può apprezzarla di più.

Briciole di saggezza scientifica valligiana.

@scribblanitea I like it very much and after 4:30 even more.
I can hear an organ in the background, it might be something different from a Hammond but it's there.
Unfortunately, the bass guitar volume is low, but that's only my opinion.
My compliments.
