Location: Lillehammer, Norway

Updated April 2012: For the longest time I lived on the outskirts of Dublin, Ireland with my better half and our gerbils. A few years back we moved back to Norway, and are now quite settled in our idyllic corner of the world (Lillehammer). We now have 4 gerbils after an unfortunate case of mistaken gender. The number of sewing machines have reduced to just 3, the pattern and fabrics collection got so large it could no longer be contained, and are now residing in 3 large, double width chest of drawers in our new home. Stay tuned for musings on patterns, books and all things vintage.

Research

I am still concerned about the wedding outfits, and to calm my performance anxiety I have been reading up on embellishments and tailoring techniques. I am trying out my tailoring skills on a coachmans coat I am making for Stig. Seems to be working, but to be on the safe side I have ordered a book om mens garments from 1600-1900 from www.amazon.ca. Just a tip, the canadian amazon is by far the one with the nicest prices. I have also ordered seven new presser feet for my lovely new sewing machine from a retailer in town. They are supposed to make sewing a whole lot easier. Which is good. Although what I really need is a huge sewing table. Preferably one with a lowered spot for the sewing machine to fit in. (Perhaps I could ask on of my lovely brothers to make one for me when we've moved back to Norway.)

I got a mail from Mari yesterday asking for the date and venue. The date is set for june 6th, 2006. We have not yet decided on the venue. It will most likely be in Norway, but we're not sure where.
