Quote The color is actually based on a RL eyelet fabric I have. My MIL is going to turn it into a sundress for my daughter. It is a very pretty color, but the camera keeps washing it out! The seamstress quickly pinned the dress, then handed Zola the pink to try. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A moment later, she called out to Eryn. "Ready." Eryn and the seamstress headed to the back. The seamstress knelt beside Zola and began making measurements. “So what are we getting?” “Four cotton dress - two brown, two blue” Eryn said. “Four worsted dress - two green, two lavender. Four worsted tunic, four oilcloth, four cotton - two in each color.” The seamstress nodded as Eryn continued. “Two oilcloth pants - charcoal. Four worsted, same color. Four cotton - brown. Blush will be short fancy dress. Silk will be gown.” The seamstress nodded, continuing her measurements. “I can have these altered by the end of the day. The tunics and trousers will take a day or two. The regular dresses will take about a week, not counting alterations. For the special ones I’ll need you to come back for fittings - especially the gown.” Eryn nodded. “Is good. You are good seamstress.” The woman blushed prettily. “Thank you! I try.” Quote In case you’re wondering: 8 regular dresses, not counting the three you’re getting now. 12 tunics, 10 pants, one party/church dress and one full gown. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Ummm, my name's Drae?" Quote “Why are you really angry at me Drae? Why do you prefer a dead god to a live one? You claimed to follow me when you thought I didn’t exist, but now that you know otherwise you lash out. I’m not the one who caused your friendship to fall apart. I’m not the one who fled when your friends were taken. I am not responsible for your choices. So tell me Drae, who are you truly angry at? Gently, Kelsier rioted the other man’s guilt, allowing the confidence he’d instilled to fade.” Many, many pages ago... I’m aware, Kelsier sent. But that doesn’t answer my question. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
