newmoonstarMy 20th birthday is next week. It's so weird, but I always feel older or younger than I am, and usually at the same time, but never my actual age. Well, anyhow, maybe there's an upside to being 'an adult'; maybe people will finally see that you mean business and let you get to work on what you want to do!
And at any rate, business IS being got down to. I actually started re-writing the 'lost chapter' of my story, but there's nothing worse than re-writing something you've already written, especially when it was perfect the first time. I still have more to re-write, which is terrible, but hopefully once I get past it, and I can stop worrying about the mechanics of re-conecting point A and point B, I'll be able to focus on the story and the characters again, and it'll start to look like something funny and clever again. *fingers crossed*
Started a new doll dress! A picture in a book reminded me vaguely of a pattern I already had, so I thought with a little adapting, I could do a pretty good copy of it. I've got the bodice done so far, and even though it was meant to be a 1900's jacket, with quite a minor adjustment it looks exactly like the 1869 bodice I'm going for.
Miracles do happen! ♥
Now to make a pattern for the skirt, and I shall have a charming additon to my rather fine repetoire of Victorian doll dresses. I suppose I better face it now, bustles are my destiny! ;-D
