I must have lost my mind

This week has been pretty *eh* so I just indulged in a little retail therapy and ordered myself the early Christmas present of some costume patterns. Yes not only am I starting a CC project this month but I’m actually using patterns, think of that!

Unhappily my scanner is being a butt at the moment so I can’t fill in details with pathetic sketches and evil plans but lets just say that the company I ordered from this evening is known by the title Truly Victorian. Yes you wicked CC Victorian costumers, you win!! To the dark side I go. pinkdiamond’s latest picture post (of her gorgeous Wishing Gown) was the last straw. But really I blame jennil & laurenmonkey most of all. You are such a bad influence – all of you!

I got the underwear patterns (TV101 & LM100 plus the bustle wire) for now. As boring as it is, underwear must come first. These things seem much less painful on the checkbook when bought in pieces anyway. :>

Yeah, I've enjoyed trolling through the message board looking at the different combos people have come up with. The fact that I don't have to scale up or figure out what the correct proportions are for a modern figure makes me quite giddy. Not that I don’t enjoy the challenge of said to achieve the results I want but what just use a pattern - what ever shall I do with myself?! :>
