Sewing....needles, thread, pins, OH MY!!!

Ok, so, yeah, we have been sewing all week for the Jane Austen Ball this Saturday. In these past two weeks, we have sewn 3 dresses, 4 chemises, and.....4 CORSETS!!!! yup, we have corsets....they give us the perfect regency silhouette...and they are actually really comfortable, believe it or not! haha!
But, sorry, I dont have pics right now, my camera is full and I havent put anything on the comp in a while...sorry! Otherwise there would be pics of pretty much everything, but not this time....but be assured, there is going to be pics on here soon! 

I just wanted to post something for you all to read! haha! 

We have had a very stressful week, but everything is going smoothly and I think that everything is going to be ready for tomorrow...

But I have a cold right now...ugh!!!!!!! Pray that I get over it VERY quickly and that I will be ok for the ball...being sick would not be fun...seriously! haha!
Anyways....

I love you all and I hope your week is filled with God's goodness!!!

Oh, yes, the curls, the curls! I loved my hair...I am so happy with the way that it turned out! haha!
I know, my mom looked soooo amazing!!!!!! When she came out of the dressing room as dressed up....sigh....she was sooo gorgeous!!!!!! ahh!!!!
I love my dress....it was fun because I got to personalize it and make it like me...and Ellen was positively the bell of the ball, she looked fabulous! haha!
And miss Suzie........soooo purty! Though she would have looked a whole lot better if she had had her ball dress made in time...but she looks so good in that day dress...she got a lot of complements on it..hehe! fun fun fun! Welll...at this rate, I am not sure if I am ever going to get pics on my blog. This is frustrating...I wasnt able to put them on the other day, and now I dont even know where her camera is...ugh!!!!!!! haha! Oh, well.....I am trying! Oh
