Hello all, As mentioned in May I was asked to join the Order of the Laurel in the SCA and have been working on (and stressing over) my gown for the ceremony. I have at least got images and progress to show, but won't have much more until after as time is pressing (I wear it a week tomorrow) and there probably won't be time for uploading and editing of images. It feels a little weird posting about an unfinished project;) I am writing up my documentation at the same time so I should have that after the event too.

I'm worried about the underskirt and ruffs not being done at this stage, but everything else is under control. Except my ceremony. Which I need to organise later today.
