Something New…

/ Karin McKechnie-Lid / Leave a comment

Another gorgeous length of silk, it’s not just a silk stripe, it has a nicest textured woven stripe for a little interest between all that sage green. I’m seeing a pretty 1880s bustle bodice/overskirt with enough left over for skirt bows.

For the Perfect Shirtwaist…

Can’t you see this as an 1890s shirtwaist and skirt? This is one of my favorites…it’s nearly a periwinkle blue with white woven stripe and super soft. There’s enough here for ALL of your “Anne of Green Gables” puffed sleeves needs.

Image result for thanksgiving 1880s

Once again the holiday season is upon us in its full glory and we would like to pause a moment from our busy schedule to wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving. It’s been a trying year for us but there’s also a lot to be thankful for and most importantly, our friends and family. For us, the sewing machines and ironing board will be temporarily idle and we’ll be spending some time relaxing with friends and family. 😄
