YYeah. Some people bake Christmas Cookies today, I corset up and try on *all the things* I’ve been working on this month…listening to Christmas Carols and “Tombstone ” is playing in the background. Because…duh!

And Finishing Off The Skirt…
Fun fact: there’s no good way to level all of these hem layers except to sit on the floor and pin, pin, pin. Yay. Worth it, though.
Further Progress
L ace layered guimpe is finished! How is it that the simplest of ideas become so…complicated? An antique lace scarf was repurposed for this, mounted on bobbinette, then I had the bright idea to appliqué more old lace to that. By hand. The whole thing. Call me crazy 🤪
Saturday At The Atelier
Don’t you just love to spend rainy Saturdays doing a little hand sewing? I sure do! ❤️
Big reveal in a few days…check my IG stories for progress!
Something New…
Silk satin trimmed organza pleating sitting on my work table looking like fairy wings.
