What I've been up to
These past few weeks have been so hectic for me. Not only were there finals to worry about but my grandmother was in the hospital and has been diagnosed with stage 4 ovarian cancer :\ Which is weird to begin with since she hasn't had ovaries since 1958, but that's a mystery for the doctors to figure out. She's doing better and is scheduled to have in home hospice care this Saturday. So lately I've been fretting, taking care of my dad and brother, taking final exams and keeping the house clean all by myself XD. Needless to say, I haven't had much time for sewing at all.
However, earlier this week I finished a dress I had been working on before finals week :) The pattern is Vogue 1153.
I love the way it turned out, it is so cute and light and fruffly :) The perfect dress for summer and beach days. I can't wait for the weather to stop being gloomy!!
Also I started embroidering a pocket to use with my Civil War impression. I know for sure it's an 18th century thing but it would be so handy to have under my hoop skirt. I know reine_de_coudre uses one ;)
This is only the primary design, I figured I could draw more as I went along :)
