Right now, I have on my dress form the toile for my niece's wedding
dress.
It will be silk duchess satin modeled off of the Paulina Astor
portrait at
the Huntington Library with the decorative elements of a Charles F.
Worth
gown. I have already produced 5 Belle Epoch silk taffeta blouses
(used up
20 years of lace bit collection), 6 petticoats of heavy silk
Organza ( a
delight to sew with) , one over embroidered silk organza wedding
veil beaded
and one silk satin Dore corset (never again). I have 5 walking
skirts, 5
Eaton Jackets, the wedding dress and the "going away" picture hat
left to do
by June. And everyone in the wedding party, except myself is 1,300
miles
away....Lord help me!!
