Fabric:
*court dress
*black wool 1860s
*Emma dress
*pink silk 1860s
*1780s jacket
*plaid linen 1870s
*white cotton eyelet 1870s
Things I actually want to work on:
*black wool 1860s
*court dress
Things that are close to being done but aren't (hems and closures!):
*teen dress
*red wool paletot
*linen Regency
If I buy the black wool-- Okay, WHEN I buy the black wool (in like, 5 minutes...) I need to compensate by finishing one of the unfinished items. Like the paletot because I need it this winter for the Big Bear trip (CWW).
I think those bustle dress fabrics are going to sit in the stash for a few more years before I EVER get to them!! Sheesh... Not really in an 18th century mood either. Definitely a good balance between Elizabethan and 1860s at this point. Which are the eras I actually have lots of events for, so I guess it all works out. :]
Hokay... now I've got my thoughts all straightened out on the screen. Time to buy some wool...

Things I have fabric for:
*paletot
*Frilly Friday
*linen Regency (just ordered)
Things I started:
*Alice dress
*Elizabethan dress
*silk Regency revamp
Things I want to make:
*velvet spencer
*brown silk 1860s
Things I need to finish, in order:
1) Alice dress (Halloween)
2) Elizabethan dress (Halloween weekend)
3) paletot (Moorpark)
Things I need to buy:
*voile and ribbon for Alice apron
*cord for lacing Elizabethan
Now that I'm thinking about it, I might not even be able to make it to the Escondido faire, so I'm not sure if I should bother finishing the Elizabethan or not. I hate having so many unfinished projects laying around though!! I MUST finish the Alice dress this weekend!

1. Get my paycheck to pay Chandra for some really lovely and amazing silk! :D
2. Start working on the Lighthouse natural form dress skirt
3. Hope that I have some leftover money to buy the voile for the rest of the dress
Yes... the Lighthouse dress is next. I need to not work on Civil War or 18th century for a very long time. Too many associations. Meh. But bustle dresses and 17th century are just fine! And I have at least half of my bustle dress fabrics in stash, which is always nice.
