Being productive

[miss_philomena]

I got Lynn McMasters' 1912 small hats pattern today, and of course I had to start working on that right away~ I'm making view A, the black and white hat in these pictures, though not in the same colors. I've got a lovely dark burgundy-ish cotton velvet that I'm making the whole hat of, and for the moment I've got some ivory lace pinned onto the brim for trim, but I'm not sure I like it. What do you think, flist? The one thing I am liking is how the pointed lace is reminiscent of a tiara.

I've also got a full muslin done of my ball gown for next week, and tomorrow I'll cut the real fabric and start sewing it. It shouldn't take too long to whip it up, I'm thinking the most time-consuming part will be adding all the lace trim.
