Another lazy day yesterday. I made my Changeling apron; it is black with a tramline pinstripe, and has long black satin ribbons and a ruffle at the top. I'm very pleased with it. We went out to our favourite weird Chinese restaurant in the evening - it looks like a bathroom (bad lino and tiled walls) but the food is lovely and very cheap. Mmmmmm, good food, much fun. Mmmmm, char siu bao. Mmmmmm.

Today I've got to actually get dressed. Then I'm going out to do a spot of shopping, and then I'll come back and do various creative things, including sewing up my tribal trousers (and maybe hemming them, or at least neatening the bottoms). I must resist making a new tunic, as I really don't need one till next year sometime (and the week-long event).

Oh gods, i need to get costume for that...i mean...at least another 1 pair of trousers (making 3) and shirts and things...

Mmmmm... If there's any of that it's plausible for me to make, give me a shout. I'm unlikely to be able to make complex stuff, but I can do simple things and amend modern clothes to look more period.

well, the trousers look fairly straightforward...

i'm getting increasingly tempted with a JEB Stuart-style jacket, in union blue and red artillery trim, for use as an officers jacket...only 145...

maybe i should wait till i've my debts dealt with then treat myself...
