I'm ecstatic to report that I was able to finish the three Burgundian ensembles (one for myself, two for friends) before my self-imposed deadline of December 18th. I'm going to be visiting family for Christmas and New Years, then we're wearing the gowns to Twelfth Night on January 5. More pictures are, of course, to come, but here's a preview photo. It's at an odd angle, as it was taken with the camera self-timer from a stump in my back yard. I'm looking forward to the event. It should be exciting!
