chocolatepotI'm so tired of those 100 Years of ... videos. Just seeing the blank white backgrounds is starting to make me annoyed.
Staff meeting today! I got to bring up all my many ideas from while Sue was out - changing up the way we come up with children's programs, getting lunchtime speakers that are more qualified, creating a new exhibition based on census data, having potluck lunches for volunteers, trivia nights, etc. - and nearly all of them are being taken on board. And then I wrote the article I was asked to write for our journal, so that's done.
I've been wearing matte lipstick for so long that sparkly lipstick just looks terrible to me now when I try it on.
Still haven't heard back from Batsford, so I'm assuming that that means they're really, actually thinking about publishing this translation, or Galerie des Modes. Exciting!
Robings pleated and pinned, ends of sleeves pinned. Just need to sew down the robings, add the back-of-neck piece (and a little bit of linen to lengthen one side of the robings - scoliosis), and make a stomacher. How do people generally feel about pinning with robings - hide pins under robings? Pin through robings? I'm inclined to the latter as, though this linen takes a crease very well, I could see it flapping around annoyingly.
