A summery frock for the end of summer :)

Just in time for the start of autumn weather, I'm working on a new frock for the Jane Austen festival. It has a decidedly summery feel ;)

Just a sneak peak for now ;) I had such grand plans for this year's festival, but I'll be lucky if I finish this one dress in time :( I also need to make some hats and bonnets to sell, and I only have a week...

Last Lace Wars reenactment of the season

I also have some photos of last Sunday's 18thC  reenactment to share, I can't find the charger for my camera so had to use my phone, which has the one bonus of easy photo uploading ;)
(I really need to work out how to do a cut on my phone app! )

 

Walking towards the government camp:

The view from our home from home - the officer's tent:

Mummy sorting out her lunch:

Me ditto ;)

Out for a stroll:

After stand down the boys got up a bit of a cricket match, our regiment, Pulteney's XIII and the visitors (who's name I can't remember! )

Needless to say, our boys won ;)

I'm going to be doing a lower class impression next year, which should be fun :)
