Just a quick look at my current project – a Civil War ballgown! I’ll be attending my first proper ball this Saturday and I hope to have this done in time, which is proving to be difficult with how crazy things have been lately. Anyways, I still have the skirt to hem and pleat, and most of the bodice to finish, including the pleated bertha (top drapey thing) which is taking way longer to finish than I expected (of course). 😉 Hope everyone is having a nice week!
Oh my gosh! This sounds amazing! I can’t wait to see it completed! Also, a Civil War ball!? How marvelous does that sound? I can’t wait to see the completed dress and read about the event!

It is going to be gorgeous, and will put mine to shame, sigh. Can’t wait to see it Saturday!
Oh, it won’t, dear. And I can’t wait to see yours either!
Love the fabric! Can’t wait to see the finished dress 🙂

How exciting to be going to a BALL! That’s so cool! I hope you get to finish the dress – it looks lovely!
Thanks so much! I hope I get it finished, too. 😉
Lovely color. You will love a ball.

You will look delightful twirling around the floor. What a pretty color!
