Leap Year

I saw this movie a couple weeks ago with a friend and I just fell in love with Amy Adam's wardrobe. SO cute.

Okay...now I want to go to Wales...or Ireland...either will do. ;) As long as I can wear clothes that cute.

Mushroom!

Okay so I have this thing for mushrooms...I couldn't help putting a giant mushroom on this half apron I made yesterday....

It's now in my SHOP. :)

Regency Progress...

For my next Regency project I decided to try out the crossover gown from the Sense and Sensibility pattern, The Elegant Lady's Closet. I got all the pattern pieces traced yesterday so I will start cutting fabric soon! I haven't tried this pattern yet so I'm excited to see how it turns out. :) Have any of you made up this pattern before?

I'm also thinking about making the drawstring gown at some point. I'm not sure if I have the right fabric for that one or not...we'll see. :)

Anyway...I'll keep you posted as I progress. It feels good to be working on a historic project...I haven't done one in awhile!

Something Regency....

Is swirling around in my mind....

I'm digging through my fabric today and have quite a pile of things to make Regency clothes out of...it's so hard to decide what to make first though! Will update soon with my progress. :)

Sale :)

I'm having a big sale over in my etsy shop! Almost everything is on sale so go check it out! :)

Fashionable Mothers

I know I'm a day late...but really, souldn't every day be about mothers? Here are some pictures of just a few cute and fashionable moms.

New Blog

Hello lovely friends! I know it's been ages but my moving craziness is almost over and I should hopefully not be quite so absent in the blogging world. :) Thanks so much to all of you who offered moving advice and what to wear in rainy weather! I've found one of my favorite things is scarves...they're so cozy when it's damp out. :) And hoods are great for keeping my hair dry when I need to pop over to do the laundry. ;)
In all the chaos of moving it's made me want to get organized though, and so I am working on organizing my blogs and consolidating some of them. I'm keeping this one, so no worries! But I've also moved my regular blog, Thoughts and Daydreams to a new location at www.simple-thread.blogspot.com. I'm hoping to blog about a variety of things from cooking to sewing to traveling...etc. It will be my main blog. I'm also thinking about deleting Pemberley Couture and from now on posting project pictures on here. Maybe make it more organized with links and such.
It will take a bit to get it all sorted out and perfect. But I think it will be so much easier to keep up on blogging with only having two blogs. :) Even this is probably more than I need! haha
I hope your all having a lovely week! I'll be back with a post soon!
