Jun. 27th, 2016 11:58 pmWe had Sewing Day at Robin's yesterday (which was very nice; I finally got to see The New House and meet the Furry Terrorist, who absolutely is a terrorist but a very sweet and extremely fluffy one), which was both good and bad for my productivity. I got the 1830s petticoat all finished (good), got Robin's net mitts cut out (good), and got massively distracted with ALL the costuming plans (bad)!
I was thiiiiis close to buying more voile today for an early 1880s dress for Belvidere (it's not til September but somehow there was much planning and sewing for it yesterday!), but I thought it over a bit more and decided there's other fabric out there that I'd rather have. I have a beige-ground floral print that's been intended for a natural form Thing for a couple of years, and there's really no reason I can't use that. Look at me, actually being all practical!
(Yes, til I buy the other fabric I decided I want, heh.)
I got my swatch of potential 1830s ballgown fabric in the mail today - except it was a swatch of upholstery weight heathered brown fabric, which was not the swatch I was looking for. Ummm plz to be sending me the correct swatch, thx. Unless your website picture is WAY misleading...
