No Pictures...
...But, I did manage to get a fair bit of handsewing done yesterday. well, a fair bit for me, anyway, seeing as I generally avoid it....
Finished whipstitching the waistband into the pants, and finished whipstitching the doublet lining in.
I even made a pitiable attempt at a real eyelet, since all my previous eyelets have been thread covered grommets. It was.... not good. :) Anyone wanna suggest a good online tutorial?

Ooh! Ooh! Pick me! Pick me! I know of a very good online tutorial for eyelets. If it helped me it can help anyone :P

Oh, this is Laura of LJ 'fame' :P
That is a great one! Thank you.
I should probably assemble a list of tutorials like that for my links, come to think of it...
Anyway, I had an "ah-HA!" moment with my eyelets and now i'm finished 11 out of 23. Better hurry it up, since we leave for faire tomorrow, huh? I'm always working last minute.
Laura--sounds like you're flemish is moving right along. When is the debut?
Saturday! Same as you :) I must say, it's nice to know I'm not the only person doing crazy last minute sewing :P
