uphill in the snow, both ways

Another sewing weekend, which was more productive & useful than the last one, in spite of several hours' rage and ripple-effect stress therefrom because our air conditioner, which the house inspector said when we bought the place looked pretty shiny and new, completely ate itself. There's the enormous cost aspect, and then there's the "oh it could take up to six days to get that last part in" aspect. Thank fuck it's not supposed to be too hot this week.

I finished the hood I cut out last time (it's reversible! --dark grey fine wool worsted on one side, olive green linen on the other), cut out two chemises & finished the neckline of one (but which I can't finish until Beth hooks me up with more of the same linen, because I didn't have enough for the side gores and, naturally, my enormous bag of linen bits has nothing in similar weight), and cut out fabric, lining, and interfacing for a pair of gamurra sleeves.

Still to do: finish chemises (and redo the neckline of the one I made two years ago?), finish sleeves, cut out & do another set, fingerloop lacing cords for them, put aglets on those plus the three I'd made already, fix my green gamurra, put lacing holes in both gamurre, and, if I'm really smoking the strong ganja, make another cotehardie. All of this in four weeks, amongst my other commitments. Riiiiiight. Oh and I'd like to embroider the sleeves and the hood. Because I don't have enough to do.

Also, must find shoes, and figure out what to do with my hair now that it's kinda short.
