| plastic boning & casing (cotton ribbon) |
Measured and cut the plastic boning, and did the same for the ribbon casing. I marked each piece of boning and casing in the correct order, so there won't be mix ups later, when sewing them on later. After cutting the boning, I filed it until each end is rounded, so it doesn't pierce the fabric.

| gloves pattern |
Using some gloves from another (actually Hokuto) costume as a base, I drafted the glove pattern. They will be made in the burgundy satin, which means, as it's not a stretch fabric, that I will have to cut it on the bias.
+ The boning will help the jacket's bodice say neater, and not wrinkle much. It's my first time making gloves entirely from scratch, I'm pretty excited.
- Because it was in a roll, the boning isn't sitting straight, I need to heat form it, before I sew the casing closed. I hope the gloves fit.
THE CUNNING PLAN
Start sewing the casing to the jacket's inner layer. Trace and cut the glove pattern onto the satin.
