Anyway, enough with boring talk and on with the pictures...
These are for the petticoat, trimmings for the pet en l'air and for covering and trim a mini tricorn that I'm planning to make. I ordered 3 yards of each. I can't wait to put my needles in these, they make a lovley rustling sound and they are so smoooth and shiny and lovely to touch and...so on.
I also discovered that the pale blue goes very well with a red velvet that I have in my stash and that I've planned to make an 1790's pierrot of so I can wear the lovley petticoat with more than one outfit!
This isn't so exciting as the other twoo. It's just one yard of a white, thin plain silk that will be transformed into a hat lining and wide ribbon on my tricorn. On top of the silk is two samples of dupion that I was a bit curios about. I hade some ideas of making an 1780's cutaway gown with one of them but they were to slubby for my taste. It's a pity, I really liked the color combos.
