nothing rhymes with orange

I pleated. a bunch of pleats. It was pleatastic. I'm only halfway done! But I ran out of pins after the first strip so I had to stop and sew it together before I could do the second strip.

With the bias tape temporarily pinned on.

In other news I finally bought my Dress U ticket and [livejournal.com profile] madamekat and [livejournal.com profile] bethhsh surprised me with tickets to the tea and the court dinner!!! Thank goodness I have a francaise to pull out of the closet and wear! That put some spring in my sewing step so to speak and got me off my duff and sewing along. Now to make more pleats.

That looks fantastic! And I'm so glad about the events - more events means more excuses to wear fun costumes! ;)

Pleats!! Just think how many more you'd have got finished if we hadn't been distracting you for hours...

And now we know why they were so worried you'd decided not to go. xD
