EEEEEEEEEEE!!!

[changeling]

We just got a package. It's our Truly Victorian patterns! Including my corselets pattern (sooo much cooler than those wide belts young ladies have been affecting lately), and my polonaise pattern, which I have been coveting since seeing Trystan L. Bass's sushi polonaise. And, of course, most importantly, the Victorian underwear pattern, including two corset patterns and DRAWERS, which we will make for wearing under our morris skirts, for fainting in 37°C heat due to thick, woolly black stockings is NOT COOL, YO.

Also, I have just updated some icons, some new, some old. Check out my "jazz-era" icon for a suggestion of what my current hairstyle looks like, and my "morris dancing" icon for a picture of my skirt, and my special morris-dancing Doc Martens.

Also also, you'd better believe that the Victorian train ride will take place again (with the addition of some morris-dancing friends, no doubt). And for those of you invited to my our jazz-era picnic next year, I shall be wearing this dress. Invitations should be sent out by the weekend.

Also also also, I have put up a new post (well, and recipe) at Reynard's Feast. This is the first at the new address, and it is also the first to include a picture. I am EXCITED. I have also picked out some coding and pictures for a sidebar ... I want to make it look spiffy soon. And create a small icon to put in my LJ when I have updated it.

Gosh, I went to check your patterns and could not leave without looking at every pattern. My mind is racing. I want to get into those knickers! Yes, I nearly had a freudian slip, right there.

Very cute ideas for dress and pizzazz.
Cheers,

Those two (Truly Victorian and Folkwears) are my two favourite pattern companies at the moment. Especially TV. Truly Victorian is where I got my patterns for the Victorian Puffing Billy trip last year.

Ooh! NICE patterns.

*nudge* You linked to the Glamour Girl dress again, instead of Reynard's Feast.

I think so!

Thanks. *fixes, is dope*

I have been wanting a polonaise with the French national anthem embroidered on.

Maybe once I make one and we're sure of the pattern we could have a go at constructing you one. You could wear it to that salon you've been wanting.

I want to wear it with my army boots to work! Hee.

Yeah...I'd love to do all the sewing I have in my head, but we just don't have the space to devote to it. :(
