Tudor: Done. Ish.

I did sew the pearls around the neckline of the gown, and after much squinting at the portrait the gown's inspired by, I've decided to make the gold Thingies (technical term) out of gold pearl polyester cotton, which I have, and gold seed beads, which I do not have. But I'm not doing that now. I would just rather not drive myself crazy trying to do all that in three days, and then it would look like crap anyway. And I still didn't buy enough pearls for the entire necklace, but I'll Cheat and it'll be All Good.
It's funny how nothing is ever really complete the first time I wear it. But the hood's done, and the sash is done, and the kirtle's done, and DAMMIT I still have to put the hook and eye on the back to hold up the train. I think I'd better go do that now before I forget again, whether I really should be Brit-Lit paper-writing or not (and yes, I should).
