Okay, I FINALLY finished the vest! I put it off for way toooo looonnnnggg. Quite a while ago I quickly made the vest as soon as I got the fabric, with no thought to detail or sturdiness, so last week I took the whole thing apart and painted the designs on it, added interfacing, and some soft brown lining to the inside. Here's the finished product: (Almost, I am currently working on the red leather belt, dagger sheath, and cordial pouch, I'll post about those when I finish them)
This costume consists of:
- A white linen shirt
- A fully lined red vest
- Teal velvet pants
- Brown boots
The cuffs and collar are pleated and sewn onto them is a cool trim that I found in our sewing room.
The front of the shirt closes with a small white button fastened with a handmade button loop. (Oops, sorry this one is sideways)
I found these great buttons at Joanns, very Narnian aren't they?

I had a whole lot of fun (and, I admit, frustration) making this costume, and I'm pleased with the way it turned out. XDUntil next time,

Soul you be willing to make just the shirt for a fan? If so how much would that cost?
Hello,
Yes, I would. But, please leave your e-mail address in a comment (I will NOT publish it) so I can communicate with you that way. Thank you for visiting my blog!

Hello,
I came across your blog, by Google, because I was searching for Lucy P.'s outfit - this one :) You did a spectacular job!
I've been looking at your blog, and all the the projects you've done are amazing. I wish I could sew so well. I have no experience - my Mum has helped (rather, I helped her as much as I could...) make a cloak for myself, which turned out very nicely, but a full outfit, that is amazing!
And the movie you're making - I'm curious, did you write it? That is so very neat. I've never tried writing a movie, though books, poems, articles, and other things, yes :)
This is a strange question, but may I ask, how old you are? :)
Have a wonderful, God-filled day!
In Him,
Raechel

Thank you for your sweet comment. :) Yes, I did write it, with a friend; it was very fun indeed :D Actually, I don't get on this blog anymore, I made a new costume blog: www.fideliascostumes.blogspot.com
I'm not allowed to put my exact age on the internet, but I am a High-schooler. :)
In Christ,
Fidelia
