totchipandaIm scooting along on the riding habit. Sleeves are done and ready to insert. I got the pockets into the front skirt. They face the wrong way (i think) but too late now!
I did the cuff buttonholes by hand. Next step is to put the lapel buttonholes on but i am so torn on doing them by hand or machine :( They would match by hand, but they will take approx 10-12 hours. Ugh!
I guess i cam keep working on other parts, but theres only so far i can go before its time to put that in. Plus there will be another 8 buttonholes on the pocket flaps and collar. Nevermind the waistcoat. Siiiigh. #firstworldproblems
Eta: i think some kind of embellishment would be less soul-destroying. It'll still take time but less than fighting with cotton thread and cat hair and all that.
ETA2: I machined the buttonholes. I just... want to keep going. Then I basically bag lined the collar and lapels, and am in the process of top stitching them by hand. I broke a needle XD
