Did some more on the centre opening of the pink kirtle, sewed the neckline, pinned the button reinforcing on the sleeves, became disheartened at exactly how many buttons there will be, went and found the blue, silk kirtle which was on hold and decided because it has infinitely less buttonholes to do that I'll work on that instead. Walked past the Polish Kontuscz a few times and feel guilty I haven't been working on it, so there's that also.

And I treated myself to some specially woven silk fabric for a new project which I wanted to make years ago but the fabric wasn't made, then I missed the first weaving run (because the price is a bit on the exorbitant side) but have finally decided to get. My theory of "The Sooner I Make It The More Wear I Get Which Makes It Better Value Theory" applies very strongly here. There will be posts and photos of all those things later in the week as I get time.
