I haven’t exactly been secretive about my wish to make another Victorian dress I believe. I’ve just now finished it! The dress that is…
I have no occasion planned (yet) for wearing this, the reason I made it was just purely because I wanted to. Seeing as a dress like this requires quite a lot of [...]

It has long been my intention to make myself a Victorian corset. But I never got around to ordering a pattern for it. And I was convinced that I needed a pattern. However, after a long time I finally gave up and decided to go ahead and make one anyway. So I did. Since I [...]

Exactly one year ago I wrote my first ever blog post on here! I realized that just a couple of days ago when I was going to check up on something else, and I hadn’t thought of the fact that it must be getting close to a year now. That came as a surprise, and [...]
