Corded petticoat is done!

Whew!! 20 rows of cording later, and we have an 1830's-40's corded petticoat!



Well, I mean, it isn't starched yet, so I guess it's almost done. Couldn't wait to share, though!

Sorry the lighting isn't better. We're in the middle of a thunderstorm! It was fun taking pictures on our deck in that, let me tell you.

That's is just lovely. And what a great tip about starting the cording in different places to prevent collapsing or denting that you mentioned earlier. I never would have thought of it.

Yeah, that was a great tip. I'm so glad the lady over on the Belle Alley was kind enough to warn me about it. I certainly didn't think of it.
