Got the linen from Denver fabrics...
Nov. 1st, 2007 08:38 amIt's ummm..bright? Okay, so it's not neon bright or highlighter bright but it's very very pink. The color is called "azalea" and that's a very proper name for it. I'm hoping I can just wash it and it will fade but I might have to use more drastic measures. Not that it matters; it's project 53 on the list of things to do.
I need to get three (and a half) gowns before the end of the year. (Not to shabby, huh?) One is the Gold court gown from Ever After. I'm kinda thinking that that might be a good one for Holiday Faire. Another is the green Elizabethan...that should be done before Christmas. The third is the pink Venetian I've been playing with since sometime last year. It's pink wool and ummm...yeah. I need to finish that one.
After all that, I can start on Mom's gowns. You see, Mom is coming to Pennsic next year (Woohoo! Play dress up the mommy!). She has a couple of outfits (a linen tunic and pants outfit that needs some embroidery to be passable but it's fine for Pennsic and a green silk late 14th/early 15th c gown.) but she desperately needs more. She is in love with the very early 16th c English style (the really early Tudor gowns) so I'm going to try and make her a couple of those. As long as she has a weeks worth of garb, she'll be fine...well, that, and the fact that they do have washing machines at Pennsic. She was happy about that.
