New Project is here! I have been sewing a pair of transitional stays of
late, based on an exact garment. This was such an interesting, and at
times, frightening, project. I have never boned so much! My stays are VERY
comfortable and fit well, Praise God! These are a better style than my
short stays, as they offer more support. The large cups are better for
me than those gussets in my short stays. I know this stay has been
widely recreated, and now I understand why. I love the support and
longer length. I actually used an old Tudor stay pattern, and altered it
<b>big time</b>. You don't recognize it as the same pattern! I did not want to buy a pattern to make these, all though
Past Patterns has one available. The result was not identical to the
exact garment, but very close! </td><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"> </td><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><br />

Please meet my latest project, a cute little owl for my friend's
Graduation present. Is he not a 'hoot'? He has a little bow tie, pocket
and huge eyebrows! He loves to grad papers and help newbies at
University. </div>

"Hootle-doodle-doo!" Here is a link to the awesome, free pattern I used
