femkes_folliesIt must be said that after a few weeks of very mild weather for the season, Winter has set in. I'd guess we got about 6-8 inches since yesterday morning, with another 4 likely today. It's the fluffy kind, though, so Darling has already blown out the driveway so I can leave for work unimpeded. All in all, it's probably a good thing. We're in for a serious cold snap this weekend, and a nice blanket of snow on the ground does tend to take the edge off that. Of course, the lake is still open, so the cold will set off another bout of lake effect snow.
The crazy woman who's cat I declawed on Monday is driving me STRAIGHT up the wall. If she would leave him the hell alone, we'd be fine. She keeps insisting on bandages, etc. He tears them off, then tears into his toes. I got a little short with her last night and told her to call the office in the morning. There was absolutely no way I was going back out last night in THAT crap.
I got the skirt for the Nuremburg cartridge pleated, and the bodice basted to it's lining. So today's project involves sewing the skirt to the bodice. The cream thread will show a little, but I couldn't find a good match in the heavy duty thread. And that skirt is a beast, it likely wouldn't hold with the regular stuff. The all I need to do is put on the hooks and eyes, velvet guards, line the sleeves, and cuffs, and hem. Plus finish the brustfleck, and make the chemise. I'll have to try it on and determine if it will need a corded petticoat or not.
