To Do List take 2…

 Well, It turns out I didn’t take into account everything else in my schedule on weekends as well as how much I didn’t write down for each person so my “to do” list for Crown has been shortened considerably. Here’s where it stands now:

1)      Kirtle with corded bodice in blue Linen for Sarah. (Everything is done except for hand sewing the       eyelets then attaching the skirt.)

2)      Coif in white Linen, Flat Cap and Pin On Sleeves in wine red Linen. (The coif is done but I’m not sure of the fit – it may need to be remade. The sleeves are done except for the wrist hem and the flat cap is cut out.)

3)      Kataginu Kamishimu (that’s a matching hakama [pants] and kataginu [sleeveless robe]) in blue Linen for Tim. (The Kataginu is done other than the hem and the hakama are done.)

4)      Kosode in white Linen for Tim to wear under his Kataginu. (This is done except for the hem and the wrist opening.)

5)      Flat Caps and/or coifs for Katie and BJ. White for the coifs, I’m not sure what colors for the caps yet. (1 coif is done)

6)      4 Banners (just color blocks – no devices)

7)      Dobuku (jacket) and cloaks if there’s time. (The Dobuku is cut out.)

At first glance that doesn’t seem like it’s any less work than before but I broke out a few of the projects that were implied/grouped into the previous list. I also took my garb out of the equation since I actually still have stuff that fits and I cut down what I’m making for the other two girls to just headwear. I most likely won’t get to cloaks but the Dobuku is a possibility since it is almost the same as the Kataginu with sleeves. We’ll see how it all goes. I’ll get pictures of the progress up as soon as I get some taken.

On top of the sewing I want to make some food up to take with us just in case. I know there will be an extensive (and it sounds like very yummy) dayboard but I’ve learned it’s safer to at least bring a little food and something to drink.

Once this event is past we’ll take a look at what I can accomplish before Yule…
