Well, first of all, I got my fabric.com order. I love them, they ship so quickly! I was a little afraid the two blues might not go together, but, oh, they do. And I can't wait til I get the linen so I can make the bodiced petticoat and get going on this frock! I loooooove the silk. It's shiny and changeable blue/green (I've got a thing for changeable silks, I know) and pretty and SQUEE! The weave's pretty slubby, which is the only thing I don't love about it, but it's gorgeous otherwise, so whatever. The flash makes it look a little greener than it is.

Oh yeah, the voile's nice too.



And we got out of class early today, since we had a test and could leave when it was done. I was determined to get out of there quickly so I could get home and drape the bodice for the blue and orange anglaise, which I really need to get my butt in gear on if I'm going to wear it on the 25th. (Not to mention the hat.)

So I actually did drape the bodice tonight, amazingly. And the sleeves, too. (I know.) I'll try to get the pieces cut out tonight as well, but I wanted to go on here first and show off the pretty silk.
