Update and Qarth Pattern Pieces

It's winter time! Yay!

Just a quick update...I'm currently working on my corset for my steampunk Jedi costume (still!) and also just started a Victorian era coat that I'm making out of some amazing forest green velvet <3. It'll be pretty formal and floor length. I'm also about to start a blush pink silk renaissance/medieval era dress to wear to my first SCA event this Christmas-time! Wewt!

Also, I had someone request that I post the patterns that I used for my Qarth dress...so voila!

Above is the shoulder piece that I used. If anything it's a little wide on me. The dimensions are 5"x7.5" for reference.

 Above is the belt which is 6.25" in the front-middle part and I guess the scan is 11" long as standard. Below is more of the pattern but it wouldn't scan the whole 16.5" pattern I made. As I mentioned in my other post, I edited my design so that there was a front half and a back half that connect at the sides as opposed to how I drew the pattern here (which would have an unsightly joining in the front!). My waist was under 16.5"x2 (aka 32") but I drew extra because it's easy to cut off extra but much harder to add it on.
I hope this is useful! Let me know if you have questions/comments/etc and I'll try and help!

May the Force be with you! LLAP
