Nearly there

We leave for Bath on Thursday morning, visiting friends on the way, so all of our sewing needs to be done, or only hand sewing left, by bed time on Wednesday, EEK! My outfit is done except for hemming the skirt, finishing the stomacher (I'm not decorating it after all, just having the white ribbon from lacing it shut showing, which I think will look very pretty, I hope!) and making a neck thingy. I'm going to make a pear choker and mount it on a lace frill with a topaz drop at the front and a brown silk ribbon bow at the back.
Clare has been sewing like a trouper on her suit! The waistcoat just needs a little more hemming and buttons sewing on, the breeches need I think 2 more buttons, and the coat needs the other sleeve sewing in, hemming and finishing inside, the pleats setting and buttons and button holes, I think we'll manage it. Oh, and Mummy's breeches need something to fasten them at the knee and they both need stocks.
Tomorrow I also need to fish out Regency day clothes for wearing around town on Sunday, and pack ( I KNOW I will forget something!) I even had fond little dreams of baking something! Hah!
