Emma_B Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 If anybodies interested. I have a few pictures of my recent project I did. The theme was victorian underwear and I made a camisole and a pair of knickers. I am I am! Me! I would post pictures of my work but I don't think anyone wants to see it...
-*-_Free Spirit_-*- Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 Ok so this is my victorian underwear project!!!! I made the print as well on it!
TabbyCool Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 I can't imagine wearing underwear like that! It looks like a little dress and shorts, like a summer outfit... well, maybe without the ribbons on the shorts! I don't know much about Victorian underwear though, but it looks well made I know that my great grandma used to wear bloomers, sometimes when she was sitting down all relaxed, you could see them peeping out below her dress, bless her!
-*-_Free Spirit_-*- Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 I can't imagine wearing underwear like that! There's a lot of underwear such as victorian underwear that we wouldn't even think about wearing today!
Emma_B Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 Those are so cool! I am impressed. I miss my sewing machine now I'm away from home, I miss the creativity of it. When I get bored, all I want to do is go back to all the half-finished bits and pieces I have a home but I need the machine up here and my mum wants it at home. Maybe I'll take up knitting again!
TabbyCool Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 I can't imagine wearing underwear like that! There's a lot of underwear such as victorian underwear that we wouldn't even think about wearing today! Yeah, if you hadn't said it was underwear, I'd think it was a child's outfit, a little dress and shorts. Seems strange that people would wear underwear like that! Then again, a lot of historic stuff is weird... like when people used to bathe in urine, or how doctors used to form a diagnosis based on the smell and taste of the patient's urine... or how the "cure" for a headache was to drill a hole in your skull to let the bad spirits out! (this process is called trepanning) As you can tell, I paid attention when we learned about gruesome medical stuff in history! That was the most interesting part! Am I twisted? Maybe, but it's fun
Ms Becky Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 You did GCSE History of Medicine too? That was the only part of the course that was actually remotely interesting. ETA: And the Indian Sun Dance, where the Sioux men would hook stuff through their skin and hang from it... though people still do that today... :?
-*-_Free Spirit_-*- Posted March 28, 2006 Report Posted March 28, 2006 Yeah I took history as an option for my last year at school for my GCSE's and we had to learn all about that medical stuff. I was one mark off a B for my coursework. Gutted!
Guevara01 Posted March 28, 2006 Report Posted March 28, 2006 I did it for my History as well. I thought it was lame. How i passed any of my courses is beyond me! xxx
Ms Becky Posted March 28, 2006 Report Posted March 28, 2006 I'm thinking maybe they didn't actually mark that paper, but just pulled little bits of paper from a hat to assign grades. I know for a fact that I answered a really long question on the completely wrong time period, so couldn't possibly get any marks for it, yet still got an A*. How does that work?!
