Sack back plodding

[mlsdesigns]

Just popping in to say, I'm a bad and useless LJ-er and have no progress photos to share :( I have made progress though! My petticoat is done, I just need to finish the front waist band; and the dress is structurally done, just needs trim, which I am plugging away at while at work!
I'm doing quite a bit of work this week at Gemma's new village shop that she opened at the weekend. It's a lovely quaint little place, with local vegetables, home made food from the pub kitchen, home baked cakes (from me!) basic groceries, and sweeties for the children. Quite a few ladies are already popping in to buy home made soup for their lunch :) I did a full day yesterday, and am doing mornings today and tomorrow, (as well as school the rest of the day and evening of Thursday) luckily, I can sew while not serving, so I got loads done yesterday, and should today as well!
I just can't wait to finish my Bath ball dress so I can get on to Titanic sewing! Seeing all the gorgeous creations popping up on my Flist is torture!

I cant wait to see your Titanic sewing!

And what are you thinking of wearing for our costume outing? Right not, I've settled on a early 1780s cotton jacket and petticoat out of a red and pink stripe. What do you think?

I've no idea what I want to wear! I'd love to make something new, (and hopefully I'll have time!) I do have some pink silk lampas I've had earmarked for a jacket for a while now, I'm thinking of 1740-50 ish for it though... ooh, I might have just thought of something! If I have enough, maybe a faun silk pierrot with my pink silk petticoat. Yes, I like that idea :D

That sounds like a lovely plan!
