Gamurra: mock up done
I finished the square necked chemise and 2 different bodices. They're all just mock-ups. For the right look and feel.
Picture time:
Finished chemise:
Finished high bodice:
After this bodice I tried it on and found out that my tailoring dummy is bigger than myself. I had to buy another one and adjust the next bodice for my own fit. Luckily this was easily done.
Finished low bodice: It's View VIII on the pattern. On the new dummy so it fits better.
I kinda like the look with the lower cleavage. But I think I'm going to alter the patterns to make a more half breasted look. So a third bodice will be made.
In other news! I also have a facebook group where I will update on a more regular basis. Also with smaller updates.

Camicia: Mock-up sort of finished
So today I had some time to kill and decided to work on the camicia mock-up. It's almost finished. Just need to press the seams and hem the underside. Perhaps, because it is a mock-up meant for fitting beneath the gamurra I won't hem it. Nobody will see it. It will be our little secret.
But pictures:
The camicia without sleeves and facing. And my closet at the back!
With sleeves but without facing:
And finished. You can see the facing shining through, but that's okay. It's meant as an undergarment.
Details for fun:
