muffs & bustle progress

Felicity's mitts, muff & pattens set came today. Oh my gosh it is SO CUTE. A very nice treat indeed. The little muff is my favorite. I seriously need a muff for myself now, ivory with blue embroidery and everything!

In other news my bustle is progressing and is starting to actually look like a bustle. Some ribbons and a hem and it's done, then onto the overlay part. Before I can continue on though I have a quick mending-for-pay job to do. Then it's on to ruffly goodness - yay!

There is little of Felicity's things (at least the old original line) I don't like. :> My sis has the riding habit and I love to drool over it. The stays are a plastic boning. I've never ripped it open to look but mine (pre-Mattel) have a nice weight, something nicer than the sew in boning from Jo-Anns, almost like German whalebone.
