By any chance, is the ballgown for the JASNA AGM at the end of this
month? If so, I'll be there too. I'm not making a new ballgown, but I
do want to come up with something new to put in my hair.

She should be wearing a red Regency-era ballgown that I need to finish by the
end of the month--it is in pieces, and I need to finish the bodice and try the
skirt for length. It's a new pattern, so I'm not sure how much hem I will have.
And, not on my dummy, but also in progress, a turban to match that gown. This
is also a sample for the turban workshop I'll be giving at the Gadsby's Tavern
costume symposium in Alexandria, VA, on Sept. 27.

Subject: [h-cost] What's your dressmaker's dummy wearing today?
It's been forever since I asked my seasonal question, so here it is:
It's that time of year when the calendar is full of holiday parties,
winter balls, gift-making excuses, company dinners, Dickens Fair,
theater season, New Years Eve, cocktail parties, and 12th Night. You
might even be planning a sojourn to a balmy tropical locale. Whatever
the reason, h-costumers are probably making something. So, what's
your dressmaker's dummy wearing today?

PS. It's ok to run into the sewing room, toss something marvelous on
the dummy and *then* tell us about it. It's also ok to tell what's in
your design sketchbook, on the worktable, in the quilt frame, at the
sewing machine or in the embroidery hoop.
