Jun. 8th, 2023 08:53 amDug around in the sewing pile and managed to find the missing embroidered gusset, huzzah! Now I just need to finish #4 and all the hard work on the 1872 corset will be done. I worked on it a little bit at work yesterday, getting some of the vines in and outlining some of the leaves. I'll keep working on it today. I won't finish it by the end of the week, but I should be able to knock out a good bit of it.
Ordered a used copy of In Royal Fashion. They wanted $130 on Amazon, and a seller on AbeBooks had a copy for $11, so yeah. It has Princess Charlotte's 1817 pearl dress in it, which I'm wanting to make again to replace the one the fire ate. (It's driving me mildly nuts that I cannot find any info about which museum has this dress in its collection!) I'm wary of ordering on AbeBooks after all the disasters with their stupid shipping partner, but since this seller is right over in Dallas, I'm hoping that it travels in a fairly straight line to me and doesn't get lost.
Stopped at the Swiss Pastry Shop for breakfast this morning and decided to try one of their sausage biscuits, and it was quite possibly the best thing I've eaten in weeks. I will definitely be getting it again tomorrow, because I've been desperate for savory breakfast foods and have had no time to make something before work recently.
