bloomers and stuff
Between my last day off and today (which was a snow day, wheeee! first snow day I've had since EVER) I more or less finished the flannel bloomers I'm making for Gettysburg. They still need a hook and eye at CB, and ribbon to go through the beading lace at the hems, but otherwise they're done. Yay! I even folded them up and put them away, they're that done.
Next up I really have to get out my stripy Anglaise and poke it - neckline needs some help, and I initially intended for it to close with hooks and eyes so I might try that, and it needs some trim. If I can't make it play nice I'll just wear my pink sacque to the Francaise Dinner (again!).
I could also try to Fix Up some heeled shoes I got for Fixing Up; I cut down the center of the toe to widen them a bit, so next would be cutting and gluing some fabric to make a new toe. I left the box out of my closet in order to inspire myself, but that hasn't worked very well, haha. Right now I'm just gazing lovingly out the window at the snow/waiting for it to stop so I can shovel the driveway.
