Yesterday was the GBACG Open House, which was very much fun. The fashion show was really impressive, and seeing everyone and talking about everything coming up got me reinvigorated and excited about the coming year. Yay! I love my geeky hobby and the fabulous people who do it with me!
I’m now having lots more fantasies about lots more dresses, including some kind of late 18th c. mourning for the Guillotine picnic in July. Someone slap me now.
Also, if you were thinking of taking my bodice draping workshop but didn’t get in, Katie is checking to see whether there is enough interest to do a second one. If you are interested, email her at workshops at gbacg dot org.
In other THRILLING news, I thoroughly cleaned my bedroom (aka the sewing room I let my husband sleep in), so things are ready to go for post-work costuming (nothing is worse then trying to sew when you have to push away all the crap and sit in one tiny corner of the room trying not to let the piles fall on you).
And, um, stuff! Can you tell I’m finally over being sick and am mentally awake for the first time in forever?
You cleaned your bed/sewing room? *looks around disaster that is mine* Wow. I’m impressed. That’s courage, if it’s anything like mine 🙂
And you definitely need late 18c mourning. Mourning is fun, when it’s only make believe!
I just saw someone’s photos from the meeting and fashion show, and all I can say is you guys do a bang-up job for your meetings.
Post-work costuming . . . um, I wish I had that energy! I even have a sewing room. *Sigh.*
