Currently making sleeves, boning, beading, and one more try-on to make sure it’s all good. Skirt will get wrapped in a top sheet for my check-in, bodice goes in my carry-on for when I get bored and need something to sew and work on. This trip will be somewhat short, but then I’ll be getting ready to go to the Tombstone house and relax in the Old West. 😄
Finishing an 1890s style ballgown for the Prior Attire Ball, there’s a week to finish it until we fly out. And a day jacket for a suit. Because, you know…life gets in the way. I also had to create all new underpinnings, so there’s that. Not coming up for air until it’s finished! 🙂
Looking back…What do you do the night before an event or gathering?
Yeah… me, too.
Two AM, and I remembered I had to pad stitch all these pleats closed. FUN! Sewing in hotel rooms isn’t what I bargained for…can I get an eye roll? 🙄😏
From 2019 at the Prior Attire Ball…we hope that borders open this year so we can enjoy dress up time with friends again!
Taken by @timelightphotographic at the Prior Attire event in Bath…this is the weekend that we should be there again. But…you know, pandemic. Looking forward to 2022 and seeing friends in person again!
