7 March 2008
Well, it’s just after 1 a.m. and we’re done. Kelly has worked so hard—-and with great results! She and I both have new Victorian garments to wear to Melanie and David’s wedding tomorrow. Kelly made for herself, a lovely little polonaise out of a yummy grey velvet, with a blue underskirt. And for me, she made a charming little tailcoat bodice that I’ll be wearing with the brown silk underskirt I already had. Hopefully, we’ll be a picturesque addition to the wedding memories. I think Kyle is even going to go and sport his period duds. It should be a fun afternoon.
Nothing much happened today besides sewing. Stephen came by for a visit. I made some further plans for next week. And I finished the mock-ups I need to take to faire on Sunday. My photo is a close-up of the lovely brown brocade from which I chose to have my new bodice made. Hopefully, tomorrow’s pictures will include one of me wearing it!
