My Daenerys bodice is finished!  I might be adding some embroidery in the future, but I am super happy with it!  :)


 First, I had to made the pattern for the front straps and sleeves, and then slip stitch them on by hand.

Daenarys Costume!

I am making a Daenarys costume for my internship, and here's the progress I got started on this Monday!
 So here is the outfit of her's I am going to make.  I am starting out with the blue bodice.  So I, with the help of the magnificent Sheila of Tulip Design, took a store pattern as a base and made a version that was just a bit too big for me.  We also made the collar too high and the bottom too low, so that we could adjust it.
 Then it got pinned up onto a dress form which is similar in size to me, and pinned and altered as needed.  The shape was changed to fit the original as well, such as the neckline and curved bottom.
 Then I took those pieces and made new, nice pattern pieces from that out of a thick paper.
 And then I took my nice new pattern and made a mock- up to see how it was looking and fitting!
Not perfect yet, but it's getting there!
