9th February 2015: Stressing over the small stuff Sometimes I frustrate myself with my costumes. I can't tell if I am being overly critical of what I've made or if there it is an honest problem. Like this costume. The skirt hangs just slightly odd to my eye, the jacket don't look quite as polished ect ect.

I'm nervous about making the matching blouse, as it is getting the lapels to match the coat lapels is not something I'm looking forward to but to make it worse i'm working from a vintage 40's pattern, which makes no goddamn sense at all.

I also really want my hat to arrive, I want to make sure i have plenty of time to get a new one if this one fails...
