Crafting Review: November

 I have been pretty busy this month, but still managed to get a decent amount accomplished! Herein lies my crafting review of this month. Sorry the pictures are sideways, I am doing this on my phone and it isn't playing nice.

I got this blog set up! I promised a certain someone I would (you know who you are) and was encouraged to do so by my wonderful friend Jessica/Allegra who also set one up this month! Go check her out as well (https://artsandfights.blogspot.com/).

  I also got a decent amount of work done on my project to embroider my courtier badge. I now have 1.5 rows of feathers left to do before I'm done. This has taken a while because I'm not a huge fan of embroidery, but I am liking how it is turning out.

I have also been working on making a Mughal coat based off of manuscript images, an extant coat from the V&A museum, and a pattern book with an 19th century pattern. It has been really fun drafting this and figuring out how the period ones would have been made. I still need to add seam binding for the hems and finish off the pocket slits, then I'll be done!

 The fabric is beautiful on both sides, so I've made it reversible. This is also my first time working with fur, which has been a fun experience. Thankfully I have a friend who learned to work with fur trim several years ago, so her infodumping has come in handy.
