Houston, we have a farthingale

Posted on January 25, 2007 by Trystan

I did it! I finished my farthingale, despite having a nasty chest cold (*hack cough sputter*).

It’s black and pink to match my black and pink renaissance corset. Screw accuracy, I want pretty undies 🙂

Now I need a good lie-down. Whew.
