Me either, sadly it will be the weekend before I get time to run the uppers and dogbones to my ma's house for stitching. So unless I hit a windfall of cash earlier than a month from now....guess I'll see if JoAnn's has the fabric for my bund/cod...or start working on the pattern for my vest.

And THEN I got some work done on the first iteration of the undersuit...

 

Added some 1/4" elastic to the wrists as center finger loops to keep the sleeves from slopping out of the gloves and bunching:

Followed that with some 2" elastic stirrups to keep the legs from pulling up and bunching, it actually made it really tight down on the shoulders but that is something I will work out in the next iteration:

Did some basic work making the suit fit better, took an inch or so from the outside of both legs, maybe a half inch from the inside, a hair in the armpits...ill show off that tomorrow when I get to do a dress out with some pics. Too tired tonight.

 

Needed to add a tiny patch of Velcro right at the neck where there was a small flap that was neither buttoned, zippered, or eye hooked.

Turned one of the bottom leg cuts into the mandarin collar...

Anyways, productive weekend. I'll put up more pictures tomorrow.
