bored - fabric shopping

[madamemodiste]

Jason fell asleep in the living room, so I couldn't watch tv or sew, and I don't have any new books at the moment (shocking!), so I went fabric shopping. Jomar had a good yield today! I got several yards of this soft, drapey spotted net. I think it's perfect as an overlay on a Regency gown as well as for drapery or overlay on summer bustle gowns. And the best part? You guessed it: $1/yd

Yeah, but a pro whose experience of Victorian dress thus far (except for looking at fashion plates and dreaming) has been making one very costumey tavern girl outfit and one very dowdy 1880s day dress.

But I may have a plan...

Do you want me to change your rsvp to "maybe" or "yes" at this point?

Please change it to "maybe" for now. I'll let you know as soon as possible if I can attend.

Thanks!
