Brad and I planned our June 20th wedding in 6 months...besides that I finished a class I was taking in the winter term. The only sewing I did was my beaded bolero for my wedding dress. I did not bead the lace, but found it on eBay. I only bought 1 yard of the very expensive lace, so it was nerve wracking...but I got it done and liked the way it turned out. After the wedding, I worked on tweaking a dress for me to wear to the 2009 Minnesota Renaissance Festival. I decided the Pink Venetian needed the least amount of work, so added some trim to it. Then I got busy on making a wearable mock-up doublet & breeches for Brad . After Renaissance Festival was over we prepared for the Northstar VSA's Masquerade Ball. I made a half-circle cloak for Brad to wear with his Renaissance oufit. I needed to tweak some aspects of my Work Dress which I made in 2008 to wear to this ball. I made an underbodice for it, repleated and reattached the skirt. Then, right at the end of the year I worked on some new Victorian underwear. I made a bustle and a new corset.
