my canvas linen just came in for my stays
I am so excited to make a working women’s outfit
and this fucking beauty
hoping to be done with at least one by my birthday~!
just waiting on my fine linen for my underpinnings to arrive
and the worsted wool for my petticoat
my quilted under petticoat (no way I was gonna make that AND A pair of stays)
and the fabric for my jacket
and I’ll be ready
💥 oh.
and the beautiful blue green linen that will serve as the fashion piece for my stays
I’m gonna be super selfish with my time this year
do all the things I put off for this reason and that
