elizabeth_mnYesterday at work I ordered my satin. 5-8 yds (whatever half the piece is, and they vary) of strawberry pink silk/rayon duchess satin will be mine!
I waffled about using a blend, but since it costs half the 100% silk and is still really very nice, I went for it.
I also considered going for a more muted color. There was a pale blue-grey that I liked, but seriously, why would I ever want to choose that over bright pink?
It should be a few weeks before it arrives, so I should probably try to have the underskirt done by the time it arrives. But first the new taffeta petticoat!
