Good news, bad news:
I found the exact fabric I want for my Blood and Gold ballgown.
It's $11.00 a yard.
And I need 6 yards.
Was really hoping to find something maybe half that price...?
*Sigh*
I'll buy the fabric, but only if I have a dressform by then and can promise myself that I'll do the gown up *right* so that it'll be more than just a costume and something I can wear more than once. Considering the underpinnings I'm going to need for this dress (full-length petticoat, backless halter bra, dyed-to-match shoes...) it better not cost me too many arms and legs... I've only got one of each on each side!
