Have you ever felt this way?
I've been diligently working out the kinks in my 18th century wardrobe for Colonial Williamsburg, in two weeks (eek!), but as I near the end of this period of intense stitchery, all I can think about is making
other things.
These other things include three (yes, three) 1830s dresses...

A pink/white version of this crazy puff pastry from The Young Victoria |

Brown silk dress from Bunka Gakuen Costume Museum - c. 1835 |
I have acquired the Truly Victorian 1830s Romantic Era Dress pattern (TV455), and am just *itching* to get slicing on the mock-up.
Meanwhile, there's a big local event coming up - the 3rd Annual Titanic Tea:
...and of course I don't have a THING to wear! I have a design, though...just no pattern, fabric, or time. The tea is 2 weeks after I get back from Williamsburg. Think I can do it?

Met, 1911. Of course it will look nothing like this...maybe a little like this...something like this, but for tea. |
