Come with me on a journey of stitches, seams and dreams<\/a> through fabric in the making of a bodice just for the sa making of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are a patron, or want to become one<\/a>, you can have access to a video postcard where I show you the bodice and what I made of it.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I took a course in how to sew a bodice and learned lots of new stitches and techniques for historical sewing. Read about it in my digital magazine<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Down the sides in a dancing figure eight, pulling tight between each stitch. Wild and merciless, strong and efficient. With the side seams in place the once flat fabric has turned into a three-dimensional structure that fits and supports me perfectly.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main fabric is a wool\/linen twill woven in a mill in Austria and sold at the Berta’s flax guild<\/a>. The lining is antique linen, from the same place. The ribbon is my handspun silk that I have dyed with my homegrown indigo and the rings are made for me by Marianne Hellman<\/a>, as a gift from my friend Cecilia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
