My dress dummy is in a corner of the house with almost no direct daylight (we want to install a skylight, someday), so bad lighting ahead :

yummy yummy yummy !

Hemming... Who doesn't love doing this !

Of course, I'm willing to help Fi, except for the hair : I'm dumb when it comes to hair.

The museum really look cool. And oh, the pretty pix we will do...

Macarons : it's been ages I have wanted to try doing macarons, so I want to have a macarons afternoon with you !!

We'll figure something out for Fi's hair, I'm sure.
Yes, the museum is really cool, and completely NOT crowded. I'm a bit sad they don't have crazy modenr sculptures on display in the gardens like they usually have in summer, that would have been quite a sight next to the 18th century outfits :D
I'll stock up on the ingredients and we'll try makign macarons. And probably end up with something not pretty at all but highly yummy. That's a good start :D
What about possible fabric shopping on Saturday and museum on Sunday ? Not as much choice as at the Marché St Pierre, but you can find some cheap and pretty dead dinosaur, and I think I've spotted and interesting rococoesque print last time I went there.

je veux bien aller baver sur les tissus, mais je n'achèterai rien de rien de rien. J'ai mon électricité qui va tomber, et après je suis complètement à sec. à gratter la terre avec mes ongles. Ce qui est pas mal chiant, puisqu'il faudrait que je puisse m'acheter 7 mètres de soie pour faire une robe crino pour le 24 octobre.

On verra...

Seulement si ça ne t'embête pas de faire un tour chez un marchand de tissu sans pouvoir acheter... Il n'a pas vraiment de soie, mais parfois j'y ai vu des satins synthétiques sympas. Il avait (et je vais ptet lui prendre 3m si il en a encore) le même satin que ma veste 1898 caramel à une époque. Si tu préfères rester loin des antres de tentation ce n'est pas une obligation :)

Have you looked at lace table runners? It is wider and might be an alternative to buying wide lace by the meter.

I Wish you joy on your outing. I'm not so jealous as I could be because I have an outing on my own. :D
