Today has not been a total waste. Finished the sleeves of the brown print regency dress and cut out the skirt. I still need to attach it to the bodice and hem it yet tonight, but it's so simple I have no doubt I can get it done before going to bed. (knock on wood)

Also, I cut out a chemisette which I plan to quickly whip together before leaving for Ft. Erie tomorrow. It's just a simple little thing made of voile with a couple of neck frills.
I had originally knocked around the idea of making two new dresses for Ft. Erie, but was violently sidetracked by a new painting instead. Last night I finished the final sketch for a steampunky painting (which the wings from my last post will feature in) and primed a sheet of wood in preparation. Since I leave shortly after 5pm tomorrow, I won't have a chance to actually start painting until I get back from Erie, but I cannot wait to get going! I'm so excited for this painting!
This afternoon I had my phone interview with C.W. I think it went pretty well, but it's always so hard to tell! I was told to expect a call within a week whether or not I get the job. If so... then I will greatly rejoice. If not... I'll just have to start searching for something else.
And completely unrelated to anything else, LJ is utterly dead tonight. I blame Costume College. Damn you all for having fun!
