Getaway weekend

Yesterday, [livejournal.com profile] eve11 picked me up from work and we set off on a little weekend adventure. A quick stop at Joann's for interfacing (me) and fabric (her), and Ichiban's for sushi before heading to her place. Last night I started putting together the mock-up of the bustier for my Steampunk FemFive outfit. I finished it up this morning and it looks like it will fit well - I was a little concerned that it would be too small, but the size I picked seems to be just right.

This morning we are just relaxing and looking at patterns until Eve's boyfriend gets back from his shooting match. Then we're off to Piedmont Lake in Ohio, where we'll spend the rest of today and tomorrow on a houseboat with D's friend J. I bought sunscreen and bugspray, which pretty much guarantees that it will be cloudy and rainy all weekend. At least the heat is starting to break. It's not supposed to get above mid-eighties in Ohio, which sounds heavenly after the last few days.

I hope the weekend on the boat is wonderful! Mid-80s does sound lovely.

It ended up being a little hotter than that, but I had a great time!

I'm glad the bustier fits - this costume is really coming together. Have a wonderful time on the boat in the (somewhat) cooler weather.

Now I just have to start working on the real pieces, not the mock-ups, and hope everything transfers over well.

Sounds like a terrific weekend. Temps in the 80's would be so wonderful!
