So I finally got around to taking a progress pic of Dodge, to go with Alyss. This is not
done done, there are more things, but y'all will see the completed duo at-con.
( Dodge )Not sure if I mentioned with Alyss, but this set is all to be made with things I already have. So I haven't bought anything (yet?).
So I had this shirt in my closet that I'd bought years ago on extreme clearance. Seemed my style, ruffles up the front and some sparkly, but I didn't try it on and didn't notice it was three quarter sleeve, which I don't wear. Anyway. So I removed the sleeves, took the cuffs and placket from the old sleeves, put these new ones on and resized the cuffs to fit. Then the jabot is from the new sleeve material (not sure if you can tell, it's got a bit of sheen to it, s'why I liked it) and the top layer is cut from an old sleeve, all attached very Pertwee style.
The waist coat I have no idea why I had, I bought it at a thrift store... probably because I like the fabric. So I shortened it, removed the faux pockets, put real pockets in, switched out the back ties for some in grey (trivia! Made from the Jack Harkness coat lining), added the heart collar, and changed the buttons.
Honestly it would have been easier to make it from scratch.
( Misc )The end.
