bad me.

After digging through the Stash last weekend (like, actually physically digging...which involved moving a lot of bins, so you should be impressed) I couldn't find anything I liked that went with the orange shantung, so I, er, ahem, bought a length of navy-and-gold taffeta from Silk Baron.

Now I should, like, ACTUALLY make this dress, eh?

navy and gold fabric with dots swatch

(Somewhat in my defense, I sat on it for almost a week, with the tab open on my phone, and when I still wanted it after the work week, decided I'm allowed to get it! And I'm using it for the underdress which won't have a train, so I can squeak by with four yards rather than five! Totally solid defense...)

I hear you, I am only now looking at Regency (for the sake of a pelisse and that is IT!)
