The toe that I hurt 3 years ago in my moped accident has decided to hurt again :( I've been in lots of pain on and off all day, but it's not been too bad while sitting, so I've got lots of sewing done. Mummy's new ball gown is nearly done:
Photobucket
Since taking this pic, the skirt os now pleated and pinned, ready to sew on tomorrow. I need to make 2 little bands to join the bottoms of the slits in the over sleeves, and once I've got them, I'll have buttons to sew on and button holes to do, as well as the sleeve hems, but the hand sewing will wait till we're in Kent, after all, hand sewing is perfect for a proper holiday! (can you tell, I didn't think the Victorian festival was a proper holiday, too much like work!)
So, tomorrow, I'll get the skirt on, then I think I'll do either my pink and gold over gown or start on Clare's red and white ballgown. Still have a long list of things that would be nice for Bath! I also remembered this morning I decided I want a pair of short stays, so I'll have to see if I still have my long stays pattern ....

Pretty!

I found a pretty sari for a new day dress, but still haven't found anything which grabs me for a new ball gown. I know something will though. It always does!

Sorry your toe is being a poophead. Hopefully after resting tonight it will be better tomorrow.

Looking lovely! I love your use of saris in your costuming. *When* I make it to England one day, you will have to let me in on your source. ;)

Lovely!

Hi there, the dress is looking fab! Great to meet you in Llandod by the way. I've done some more digging into what the Victorians wore in the 1880s in the cold, and I'm winning, yay!
