thanateI keep buying Reconstructing History patterns, because they are for awesome clothes that no one else has patterns for, but thus far every one I've tried to use has been to some extent an exercise in frustration. I've been sewing for the last twenty years, with a bit of hand-work experience before that, and I find these instructions to be mad scavenger hunts for what in the world I'm supposed to be doing. Admittedly, this is probably not historically inaccurate. (Does anyone else have this problem?)
While I fret over mysteriously appearing interlinings and tabs that don't line up with anything,![[personal profile]](https://s.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
grauwulf is re-routing the plumbing... to run over the old basement stairs. Fortunately, the nice new stairs are about to be useful, because we have drywall.
Tomorrow may yet include tile, plumbing fixtures, and a bathroom door. Tonight may or may not include a hard freeze. So it goes.
