One of the things I do is find things and haphazardly remake them to suit my costumes. For croquet tomorrow the time is the early 1900s. Originally I thought I'd be able to make a proper dress for the occasion. When the date got moved up, that went out the window - but I decided I'd damn well have a proper hat.

Here she is:

The feathers are more tan than pink and the lace is ivory, not white. Also a bit of blood, because no sewing project is complete without it. And yeah - I sewed all this. No glue, never mind how much nicer that would have been.
