Winter wonderland

The winter here has been pretty brutal. Snowiest January on record, I'm living in my Hunter boots. I've been staying in a lot and trying to be productive.

Believe it or not, these last three photos were taken on my HTC G2 with the Retro camera app, a really brilliant program.

Lady Jane Lingerie Collection 2

I'm working on some patterns for my 2nd "collection" for Lady Jane Lingerie (I suppose it can't really be called a collection as it's only two pieces but whatever). I'm finally making a bra. Fitting bras is really challenging and to make it authentically vintage means sacrificing some of the advances in fit that have been developed over the past 70+ years. But, hopefully they will look great anyway. Here are some initial sketches. All designs were adapted from vintage 30's and 40's patterns.
