The ball gown I made sort of looks like this, but not as good.

On Saturday night (2/11), my husband and I are attending the Jane Austen Society's Regency Romance Ball.  If you come to the ball or the launch, don't look too closely at my ball gown, okay?  I made it myself and the buttonholes are pretty much the worst I've ever seen.  I probably should have used velcro.  And, another thing--why don't patterns have vanity sizing?  Get with the program, Simplicity.  And, "Simplicity?"  hmmm.  Not so much.

My husband is threatening to come in a wet shirt ala Mr. Darcy. 


I'm still thinking about refreshments for the book launch.  Got any ideas for treats that would work well in a bookstore?

    Didn't like the sweet roll idea? I shouldn't eat them anyway, but I'll be there.

    I guess that means you won't be to our Wood Badge Bead Presentation? I am so glad - the ball sounds like a lot more fun and exciting. Please take pictures of you and Mr. Darcy all dressed up for the ball. I would love to see your dress.

    my temple dress in an austen style dress, and then I did another one to go with my husband's military costume.
    We might have to make it to UT one day for the Regency Ball - what a blast!

    I SO wish I lived closer :(
    But I hope you have a great time!

    I'm thinking something on a stick, like cheese and meat cubes.
