Why did you take the pictures during the creation process ?
I took pics along the way , and when I have time , I hope to post a diary of its creation . I do n't know if its a period shape or not , but I was so thrilled with it I just had to share . The fashion fabric is just plain 100 % cotton . I have a double strength layer of twill , and the lining is muslin .
