I'm almost finished with my kirtle*! The only thing left to do is fix a pleat that fell a little, and then hem it! I'm not completely satisfied with it. I see ways that it could be improved, but now I know for next time.
I'm still hoping to have my doublet bodice done before Stronghold. The skirt that goes with the doublet bodice will be no problem. It just needs hemmed. Oh, and I need to sew a large hook and eye onto it, but that won't take more than a few minutes.
So, I'll try get started on my doublet bodice today. I'll have to start working on buttons. I don't know how many I'll need.
*A kirtle is like a bodice and skirt attached, so it's a dress instead of two separate pieces. The bodice of the kirtle can still have a pointed front, but is simpler to make it straight across.
