There’s a bit of pad stitching in my future! This is so different from my usual style, but I’m facing the music. Maybe it’ll be my new favorite? Let’s find out…the hat and shoes are waiting. 😆
1890s
History Mirror Monday @ Lily Absinthe
One last dress check before leaving for town on History Mirror Monday here in Old West Tombstone. 😁
And For Some Late 1890s Millinery
Playing with some millinery with this antique hat for the French 1898 suit. Brown is *not* my color, so this incredible extant ribbon in black and rose will help! It’s a bit dramatic…but so am I and there we are. 😆
Some More 1890s Style…
I love the late 1890s fashion of pairing a shockingly bright colored bodice with a contrast skirt…and when I saw this “Juneberry” ribbed silk from Silk Baron…I was hooked! 😁
Something New For Me
I finally got to make something for myself and use things I’ve been saving for way too long…I’m hoping to get some use of this cape before Spring arrives! 😄
