Another note,
The young gentleman in the foreground, dressed in yellow - is he wearing

Gosh, i really have putten myself to work with all that pleating for the
dress. Spended 2 days to make trim, and i have not made all of it yeat.
I have handstitched all the gold trim to the fabric strips, and it pays to
do so because it looks much better...
