Today's wool purchase got me looking over old notebooks and online galleries and now, dammit, I've just spent the last hour or so determining that yes, I do have just enough carmine-colored damask to make an Italian sottana like I've been dreaming of ever since I saw the Red Pisa Gown (http://realmofvenus.renaissanceitaly.net/workbox/extwomclo1.htm) which is gorgeous but I can't find that much cotton velveteen and I have this damask already sitting here in a drawer and besides, isn't damask even better for Italian stuff anyway? Yes, it is.
Sometimes I can't write a run-on sentence long enough to express all the clicks, clanks, and whirrs in my fevered brain.
I shouldn't be writing here. I should be working on the doublet and my corset so that I can start work on my carmine sottana. .... *shifty eyes*... BYE!
