Making a Cotton Bustle Gown // The Carmine Gown (Part 2)

Finishing up the Carmine Gown with a couple of skirts! The Truly Victorian 4 Gore Underskirt, and the TV Asymmetric add on overskirt, plus a few pleats. Then a look at some antique Victorian jewelry, a peek at a local train caboose (bustle and caboose jokes in there somewhere surely), and a glimpse of the hat I'll show you how I made next week!

But wait there's more! A PO BOX finally wahoo!

First, a disclaimer: So many of you have kindly offered to send me things, including vintage items you may have inherited, and I am so honored you would think of me and of course I do adore vintage treasures, however, unfortunately I only have so much storage space currently! So there is a chance that if something just wont work for me, or doesn't fit me etc, that I may not be able to keep all of your lovely things. Please only send things if you are okay with the possibility that I may donate items I just cannot keep. If you would prefer I put things that I can't keep into the TCH Etsy shop to help raise funds for me and the channel, please specify this in a note or letter in your parcel. Thank you so much!
