mandie_rwGuess what I sewed tonight! (I spent most of the day being not in the house, enjoying the unseasonably cool weather, so not much sewing went on. Low 80s, OMG! Only for today and tomorrow, so I'm making the most of it.) You'll never guess!
I decided I'm going to take advantage of the not-balls-hot weather and squeeze in a costume shoot tomorrow - of the satin 1860s ballgown I made for Gettysburg. My blog post on it is only 9 months late... So I spent my time tonight sewing that line of lace that got ripped off back on. Somehow it contrived to be about three inches too short (okay, sure...), which was annoying but not catastrophic, as I have a whole card of that. Also tacked the lace on the flounce where it ripped in a few places - good thing it's a big hem, so the rips aren't very noticeable - and put on a new bar (the original exploded off when I got dressed, oops).
So, expect productivity tomorrow! :D
