I summed up my sewing

I summed up my sewing in my costuming blog - over here.

Yesterday was asu usually spent with friend and neighbour Anna. Rickard worked until 201.5 so we had a late dinner. Or rather: they had a late dinner, since I'm not eating. But I watched them eat, and I prepared some of the food.

And I wore a new stretch velvet dress and felt rather fabulous and cosy at the same time. It's dark green btw, not black.

Wow! You have accomplished ever so much sewing this year. Lovely stuff, too.

Thank you!
I got so inspired first by becoming baroness, which got me all excited about the High Middle Ages again, since Måns wanted, quote: "to wear dresses", and then when I went to Bologna I saw so much early 14th century art which made me discover that there was a special Italian style in this period too.
It has been great fun, I haven't sewn this much in ages.

Those are great reasons! And everyone in the Barony benefits from having a well dressed B&B :-)

I am impressed that you got so much done and envious of what you made.

Thank you. Even though the reason that I don't work full time is that I can't work more than the 3hours a day I do now because of my arthritis, it still helps. Because hand sewing doesn't usuaully affect me badly. It also helps tremendously that my job is less than ten minutes walk from home.
