So I'm gonna be Sappho for Halloween this year, so I wanna make a chiton. It's been several years since I last gave them a try, and I'll be sewing them by hand instead of using a sewing machine. I've been looking on Reddit about tips and tricks, particularly fabric. Like, I wanna start out with a mock up, using a bed sheet. But what size do I need? Full? Queen? King? I'm going for 60" x 60", but double the length, right? For the folding in half bit, y'know? And then for fabric, I'd like to use a soft cotton gauze for some lightweight draping.
On another note, I've once again been veiling, but y'all have heard me whine and complain about the heat and sweating to death under scarves, so I'm doing headbands. I went to Dollar Tree and bought, like, 8 different headbands, and when I got home and put them all up, along with headbands I already had, I have so much PINK in my wardrobe.
I used to only wear black or dark colours, but the last year, I've been getting into pastel pink, pearls, silver, rose quartz, that vibe, and a kinda soft, natural, pink and healthy aesthetic. I know I've talked about veiling for Hestia, but I feel like doing it for Aphrodite. The headbands not only make me feel cute and keep me a little cooler at work, but all the pink makes me feel very loved. Thank you, Lady Aphrodite
