Worked a decent amount on the paletot today...but apparently I will go to some pretty extreme lengths to avoid bits of sewing I've decided I don't want to do - this instance being hand-sewing the piping on the paletot's second pocket flap. Well, it was fiddly and annoying!

No worries, it's still Gettysburg sewing! ;)

And in other news, I got my English lace  for the ballgown in the mail today - I love how promptly I receive things from the UK! Really wasn't expecting it this soon. (Also, if I can't afford to buy food at Gettysburg...this lace is the reason why. Hah. Kidding. Mostly.) The first, narrow one I bought is a slightly darker shade of ecru than these - and in fact the top two are just a wee bit lighter than the bottom - as you can probably see, but that's not really something I'm fussed about. Indoor, ball lighting, right.

I would never have noticed the difference in the shades if you hadn't mentioned it ;)

I figure everyone at the ball will never notice cause they'll just be drunk anyway. xD Elegantly, of course. OF COURSE.
