Not the most exciting Progress Log content wise BUT I’m very happy to announce that this is one of 4 Progress Logs going up this month, so hopefully that will make up for it! In this video I work on two 18th century projects, and talk a bit about other costume plans. More information about everything mentioned, and what I got done is down below!
Just as a note, I wouldn’t mind if this was what I accomplished in a week. But this video was filmed over almost a month, which is why it’s a bit disappointing to me. However after listing ALL the things I did (not just the things I filmed) I feel a bit better! Because in addition to making major progress on my 18th Century Turque and 18th Century Robe a L’anglaise I also:
Sewed applique, lace trim, and beads onto the 1880’s bodice. I also finished embellishing the skirt.
Made a light up ball gown and took on my first commission.
Drafted and constructed the top half of a 1920s inspired coat.
Made a cape.
Filmed eight videos.
Photographed two projects.
Made a skirt for my 1830’s project, and a bonnet.
Hemmed a petticoat.
Not too bad considering other things that were going on!

![Pillbox Hat Tutorial
How to make a cute little (or large!) pillbox hat!
I think most of the tools mentioned in this video are self explanatory, but here is a bit more info on some of them!
✩Heavy duty thread: the one featured in this video is by Coats & Clarks, and called Extra Strong. Ive NEVER had this thread break on me, its great and not too expensive ($2 a spool) but isnt required for this project. It just makes it easier.
✩Wire: I was using 18 gauge picture hanging wire - but the wires purpose doesnt matter, as long as it is thin enough to be bendable and strong enough to hold its shape. Id personally recommend galvanized steel wire.
✩Interfacing : The interfacing used is by pellon, here is a direct link:
http://www.joann.com/pellon-stabilizer-interfacing-by-the-yard/1261502.html#pmax=10&pmin=5&start=1
It feels like felt but is much stiffer. You can get the type with or without fusible webbing; it doesnt matter that much.
✩Buckram: I dont like buckram very much since it is more prone to breaking, the thread catches on it constantly, and its overall much more difficult to work with. If you have to use it I recommend binding the edges with ribbon, so even if the buckram breaks there is still something supporting your stitches.
✩ MAKING SMALLER HATS ✩
As I said, this process can work for any size hat - even tiny doll hats. But you need to adjust the materials (and ease mentioned in the video) accordingly.
Material adjustments I recommend if your hat is smaller than 4 include:
✩Using buckram instead of interfacing - buckram is much thinner. If you are making a 2 hat or something very small this will give you a cleaner finish.
✩Using thinner wire. Look in the beading section of craft stores!
✩Stitching everything by hand. This will give you more control, which is crucial when working on a smaller area.
