rainbow trout: another bow
Aug. 5th, 2016 03:40 pmI decided not to bother hemming the sash-bow. It's not getting tied and untied so it shouldn't fray too much, and if it does it's easy enough to take off. If you thought yesterday's bows were big and stupid, brace yourself: this one is much bigger and stupider!

And you may notice the crinkly slippers I'm wearing there - I attached the second sole, pasted the paper insoles in, and sewed the ribbon ties on, which means they are DONE, like the dress. And I haven't even gone to work yet. Got to be some kind of record.
...Shame it's supposed to thunderstorm tomorrow! As of now we're going anyway, because I already bought the tickets, dammit, and I'm tired of getting rained out of events! Maybe we'll get very lucky and it won't storm much. If it's very wet I won't wear the slippers, but the dress shouldn't get destroyed if it gets rained on - apart from maybe the taffeta, but I have more of that, worst comes to worst. (And I've had silk taffeta survive getting very rained on, so.)
