Pretties!

Today we went into Cambridge town center, mostly because every time I'm here I go to G. David Booksellers and rifle through the drawerful of antique fashion illustrations located in their Antiquarian section. And, as always, there were many many lovelies that I want to take home....

This year I'm ending up with six. I have three sheets (six pounds each) of 1831 dresses because I want to try making a corded petticoat. And I have three sheets (at twelve pounds each) of 1974-5 Le Monde Elegant gowns. The latter I could easily have bought half a dozen more of, but I'm unemployed and I already blew my budget at Liberty in London. ;_;
