Ok, didn't quite get the painted petti hemmed yet...I had a couple of things I needed to shop for (or "needed" to shop for, like my ice skates for my birthday party), and then somehow I ended up spending 45 minutes on Sock Dreams' website picking out Christmas presents! Well, 'tis the season to start thinking about those, so I don't really consider it wasting time...heh.

AND I got my Dames a la Mode sparklies in the mail today! I literally tripped up my steps after getting the mail I was so excited, haha. No pics til I wear them with the ballgown I still haven't started, eek. The ball is two weeks from Friday... (Also still owe Taylor a petticoat for those. Um. Sew like the wind!) Well, Robin's got her bonnet safely so at least there's that!

Ooh, thanks for reminding me I need to buy skates for the Little House party! Where did you buy yours from? And are you going to the Little House party?

I lucked out and found some black vintage skates on ebay (women's are annoyingly all white! but men's size 5's aren't very common, unsurprisingly). And no, I'm not invited to that, haha.

You must be a fast painter! I'm amazed that you've done a full petticoat so quickly!

This is mainly because I thought I had another week before I had to mail it, heh heh heh...ohhhh, has to go out *before* Thanksgiving, not after? Ooops. xD This is the less complicated pattern, so I can finish a repeat in about 45 minutes, 5.5 repeats per panel, and there are 2 panels. So not TOO bad. (And I did a lot of painting during my days off this week!) :D
