:(
Got an email back from ATHM turning me down. It wouldn't sting so much if I got the better rejection ("your credentials are/many candidates were good, but we went with someone more qualified") - instead I got the "no thanks". It sucks, I thought I stood a good chance of at least getting an interview because of my enthusiasm.
Finished the camisole this morning, but then the next gown I'd requested turned out to be a costume - a very good costume, I thought initially that it was just a mucked-with original, but a lot of things didn't add up. I asked about a petticoat, but when she brought it out I was eh, it wasn't bodiced or anything and I wasn't secure on the dating. The last thing I asked for was a gown that only remained as a bodice and hem, which I thought would be a cool thing to show (since that's obviously never likely to be displayed) and which had some great puffing, but the location in the computer was not correct. So I went.
I've been trying to find my egg rings and cherry pitter in Dad's basement, but they just don't seem to be there. There must be another box - maybe in the shed or garage - with all sorts of kitchen stuff. I did find my shift, which I don't really want to wear as the neckline doesn't quite work with my gown ... I could very easily keep it to use on the costume table tomorrow and just use a tank top.
