November 17, 2012 at the Ft Worth Botanic Gardens, we held our 4th annual Georgian Picnic.
It was a blast! I can’t believe how many people attended this event. It’s really grown, and it’s such fun to get together with everyone.
You may recognize a few people. We had at least one out-of-state visitor, as well as someone from Finland! How cool is that? We’re all very happy that others want to join us, and hope everyone had a great time!
I didn’t make a new costume, and I didn’t finish anything for Christopher.
I did, however, make a new hat for my chemise a la reine and fixed a work bag/purse. I didn’t get any photos of me holding the bag (oops!), so I’ll have to try to get some good photos of that for the costume page. I only wish I’d brought a large enough mirror with me so I could tell I’d pinned my hat on a little off-center. D’oh! I also need to sew a comb to the front of the wig. The hat was heavy enough, that it kept pulling my wig back.
I wanted to hurry and get as many photos on Flickr as I could. I tried not to put too many duplicates, but I wanted to make sure I shared as many fun photos as I could. Christopher took most of the photos and he was such a sweetie that whole day. A HUGE thank you to him for being so patient and helpful!
Speaking of Christopher, he may be updating his Flickr account with some edited versions of the photos I posted. I don’t bother to do anything to the photos I put on Flickr, but he enjoys trying to make them look nicer. Update: Christopher edited some of the photos to really bring out the color. They’re posted on his Flickr album here.
So here is a link to the event photos!
The plumes on your hat are amazing! Love them!!
