Contemplating
I divided the horse hair roughly in half and stuffed both sides of the trunk hose. It definitely gives them some shape! I just hope I don't end up smelling like a horse when I'm wearing them. This may be one of the few times that it's good to have a non-breathable fabric. :)

I'm trying to decide what exactly I should use to line the panes. I was going to use the black cotton/linen, but I'm looking through some of the lesser fabrics I have lying around that need to get used up. I'm also foing to use more of the stiff mattres ticking as an interlining on the panes to really give them some substance. Looking at the pattern, I have some doubts as to how the whole thing will go together. In my mind's eye the pattern just doesn't seem plausible. I'll just have to do it and see how it turns out.

[this was actually the 6/4 post. I accidentally overwrote the 6/2 post. Whoops. Not that nayone's reading this anyway...]
