mlsdesignsso, the ball is on may 10th, so it's my birthday ball! mummy is being queen victoria (it's supposed to be queen victoria's birthday ball, but i know better!) so i, as her daughter, must be a princess!! i'm going to be princess alice, since her birthday is april 2? (something, i'll have to look that up later) she was her second daughter, and very pretty :)

did you not see it before? with any luck, if i work like a good girl tomorrow you'll see the bodice made up in the silk! that can be my challenge for tomorrow, to get it to at least that stage before you come!
