It’s NOT been a while since my last post and this makes me happy because this means the raining I was complaining about in my last post has finally stopped. 😀
Today I also don’t want to talk too much because I only want to show you my finished dress worn with my now decorated bonnet I showed you in my last post withour decoration.

Let’s talk bonnet first! And let me tell you, finding autumn-ish artificial flowers in mid-october is nearly impossible! I was in 3 different home decor shops and found NOTHING. They only had christmas-y stuff and the shop staff told me I was two weeks too late.
And then my mum had the idea to drive to our local Ikea. While she was driving I was looking through the online shop and found a beautiful autumn bouquet which was also pretty affordable and I got the last one even though it was marked as a new product in the shop! (I also bought some christmas decor because how could I go past the christmas section without taking anything with me :D)
When I came home I tried to pin the flowers to the bonnet to see how I want them on the bonnet and I was super pleased with how everything looked.
Before sewing the flowers on I cut two strips of the green silk to make the hatband and then I sewed the flowers down to the hatband, so that I can change the decoration more easily. Only the fern is sewn down to the bonnet itself but those stitches are easy to remove.

And then I was ready to put on my dress and wear it for a little autumn-walk through the castle grounds of Castle Kittsee which is not open for visitors because it’s primary use now is only for exhibitions or events.

Today I have a pretty short post for you to show you my new dress, inspired by the fashion of 1837. I’m not the biggest fan of the 1830s because of the ridicoulus sleeves, but sometimes I have a short moment of enough craziness to actually make funny sleeves. This dress was inspired by the …

As we all know the world, as we know it, came to a halt because of a virus. I don’t want to talk much about that because sewing and costuming is my escape from the normal world and also the pandemic which is going on right now. I just want to say this: I hope …

Good morning or afternoon or evening everyone! Today I have a new little project for you, which was not planned at all but was a lot of fun to make.
