Who has two thumbs and a kick-ass tiara?... This guy! (Except you can't see my thumbs cuz I needed hands to operate the camera. Not the point though!)

My tiara came in the mail today and it's so sparkly and lovely and tiara-y. I'm a pretty princess now!

True to form, I did not get nearly as much done on my bodice during my trip as I wanted to. The days were so long and hot that by the time I got back to the hotel in the evenings I was too tired to sew. I did get sewing done in the car though. I overcast all the seam allowances. The awl is too pointy and shank-like for me to feel comfortable using it in the car to make eyelets. (What if we went over a bump while I was using it? Blood everywhere, probably.) Hoping to do most of those today.
