.....I am unable to DM you, though?

That would probably be wisest....we don't need the proverbial internet Bevis and Buttheads showing up to make pervy comments because we mentioned a woman's body, LOL (I DEFINITELY just dated myself....)

But, yes, I am currently taking orders! They start at $79 for a plain, very light, drapey cotton/poly, in a natural(ivory) with the half sleeve. (It requires nearly 10 square yards of fabric). Choices go up from there.

It was like pulling teeth just to get the photos done and the social media up this week. (Instagram and Threads keep insisting I'm a bot or AI or something - ?? That's my own daughter and her coworker in these photos; don't even get me started on that.)

I have some available, now!! I just haven't had a lot of time or bandwidth for getting the whole online storefront set up. It'll have to be communicating via private message and using other means for payment.

They include extra deep pockets and elastic gussets in the underarms.

I have a choice between 100% cotton and cotton/poly - both have advantages. Details vary between elaborate embroidery, ribbons, ruffles, and even bustling. So far, only one person has ever asked for long sleeves - despite how darling they look! - the half sleeve is more practical.

They are! Storefront is coming; For now, it's the old-fashioned DM & Paypal method (I have a referral from a VERY established person, if needed.) The price varies depending choices, $79 and up. (I have a few prototypes I'm willing to offload for cheap, too.)

Hope you don't mind. I had this photo in my gallery and decided to add you both to it. Cheers.

Wow - that's beautiful! Also, not my work, nor am I one of the subjects, LOL. I enlisted my daughter and her coworker, and her friend is the photographer. (At some point my granny-ass is willing to appear, but so far, I've never been where the camera was.) I will pass the work on immediately!

Also, I do other work, and freelance for other, well known Ren Faire creators, so I have references if needed.

I'm hoping to have the store up and running soon, for now anyone can DM requests and work out details. They are definitely wash-n-wear; dramatic, but still practical. NGL - just one intent is to feel like you're wrapped in your bed sheets, even though you're not in bed.

She's lovely, isn't she? She's a h̵e̵r̵o̵, teacher, too.

I can confirm this from a different perspective: I first saw this nonsense at John Birch Society teen summer camp in the 80s. It's pure propaganda dreamed up by frothing, racist, white guys who blow-up buildings with children inside. (Also, you just learned about JBS summer camp. You're welcome.)

So tired of the "Are we in a Constitutional Crisis" question. We've been in a balls out Constitutional Crisis since we let Mitch McConnell steal a Supreme Court seat from Obama with no consequences. What rock have y'all been living under all this time?!?

You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work.

You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules.

Get your lies straight.

PSA: If you think a guy standing on a vandalized Waymo car with a Mexican flag is a bigger issue than the president calling for the arrest of a governor for no reason, you may have lost the plot.

When they think no one is looking.
