Morning has come

...night is away. Rise will the sun, and welcome the day. There a song with that text that I learned maybe 15 years ago. and I just sang it to the new morning.
There's an absolutely gorgeous sunrise out there now. Half an hour ago the sky was blue, purple and a faint pink and now it is all turned into orange and pink and mauve. I LOVE sunrises.

Favourite songs on "M"

A meme I got from seamstrix.
It was hard, not many song titles begin with an M. Not in any particular order.

Temple de Paradis

The calvinist temple in Lyon. So I did as florentinescot suggested and scanned the picture in the book. I didn't think it would give much, since the picture was so small, but apparently the publisher wanted good quality pictures, so it didn't get that bad when made bigger. Much better than the versions I've found this far. So, the pink and teal dresses are mine, do you hear that?!
Joking aside, I find it interesting to find this to me very dutch/flemish style so far south, but it could be influenced by the fact that they are protestants, calvinism was big in the netherlands.
A funny thing is the lady on the far left, with a red petticoat and sleeves to her black dress. I already have red dress to my dress and I have ordered red silk to make a matching petticoat. So all I need to make is a small black hat and then I have it.

Another linen cap

It looks totally ridiculous from the side, at least with my hair down. But I plan to wear it with my hair up of course, and maybe with a bonnet over for my regency clothes. Or with simple 18th century clothing, they were used on both sides of 1800. And from the front it's really cute.
