Re: [h-cost] 2 piece sleeves

I saw the traveling exhibition of Princess Diana's clothing several years ago(it came to Omaha!) and noted on all the long-sleeved garments that the sleeves were two-piece and the seams all matched up. Cindy Abel -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Be

Re: [h-cost] 2 piece sleeves

Not what I wanted to hear. Heaven forbid that my clothes are not on a par with royalty. Just kidding. Thanks all for the comments. I don't think I'm going to worry about it. The pattern has too many other fitting problems anyhow I need to deal with. I thought I would be saving myself

Thanks. That was what I was thinking, but I wanted confirmation. You can see what I'm working on at www.myspace/1aspasia.com It isn't one dress, but a combination. I'm in a wheel chair and can't do hoops. It has been a while since I have updated, but just my running thoughts and pictures and docume

Re: [h-cost] 2 piece sleeves

What do you mean when you say a two pieced sleeve? 2piece vertical or 1 horizontally connected? Haven't seen that one but there are also sleeves the have a front and backs seam so the outter part is smooth. Can't think what a 2 piece sleeve looks like. Brain block recently. Sincerely, Rebecca

[h-cost] new elist for research in Textiles and Clothing

As you know, it is a bit difficult to keep up with the literature, conferences, symposia, etc. in the field of textiles and clothing from the post-Roman through the early modern periods (500-1600CE). It is a field spanning many disciplines in many languages with the indexing of the journals qui

[h-cost] 2 piece sleeves

With tailoring head on, I'd say that on a modern garment, they should match. Generally it's simply a case of fiddling about with both body and sleeve patterns till they do. A little off is less of an issue (up to half an inch or so) - more than that and I'd personally have to alter.

Re: [h-cost] 2 piece sleeves

I can do that in the back, but the front sleeve seam is so low, where I think it needs to be, that the front princess seam can't match. It may be that I recall only seeing the back seams match in the past. Sylvia On Jun 6, 2008, at 5:38 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > With tailoring head
