Moulage Fitting continued

2013-10-31Lola 9 Comments

OK, this is as good as it’s going to get fitting a moulage by myself.

2014-03-31Lola 3 Comments

Before I show you the matching reversible(ish) Burdastyle 11/2013 #117 moto jacket I suppose I should catch you up on my jacket block(s) experiment, since I used that as my fitting yard stick for this jacket. Remember my Kenneth King moulage from way back when? And the Top Block that I muslined backed in January? […]
