Accountability, 8 years later

I made a dress, many many years ago. About 2003 I think. Black linen, red velveteen 'piping' and cheap brocade trim. It was losely based on many images and ideas, but not on any single one. It was the sturdiest, and easiest wearing frock I had, and I must say, I did an awesome job on it that early in my sewing days. I wore it to death, and it was nearly dead at our step up tourney in 04. I think it now belongs to Squish?
And then it was 2005, and I needed a new one, and I had this awesome pink linen that reminded me of the colours in the Ausburg seasons murals. Full circle skirt this time, and that really was the thing that made it look awesome. This time around, I had more access to round-fronted gown images. But really what I was doing was copying my old frock. And then Mel had one, and then we made one for J for Pennsic...
I left the pink one in America. I'd bought too much fabric to bring it back home with me. Duchess Megan got it, and I hope she wore it lots.
I made a blue version long before I gave that up though. 2006 I think. Slashy sleeves, just for fun. More linen, more short sleeves. C got many wears out of this when I was done. It now has a third owner, I think?
I threw some old pics up on flickr ages ago. A nice lady in Canadia has spotted the similarities in all our frocks, and decided to make one even though she was having trouble sourcing the One True Image.
I've since dropped her some of the images I used to build the original. But it's really got me itching - that wasn't all the pics. LoverBoy is at work, so I've stolen the computer where all my images are stored. Flickr now has a folder of all these ideas. Although there are still a few missing. Such as the Ausburg murals, and Alyxx's website. Or this awesome chicky. Or good old Dorethea. Or this lovely lady in red and gold.

At any rate, I'm now turning over projects in my mind. This whole thing may have got me ready to do some sewing again.
