In Search of Wormwood

[absynthe1972]

Featuring Gerschy and her new dress & face up. I'll make the same dress again in different material but I'll make sure to NOT use organza.



















(I goofed. Should say mustn't want anyone. I'm too lazy to fix the text atm.)












Yes, elves DO shop at Wal-Mart for flower seeds from time to time.






...To be continued...



If anyone would be so kind as to help me identify some of the ivy and broad leaf 'weeds' (and that funky purple tipped flower), I'd greatly appreciate it. My backyard is growing wild with all the rain we've been getting. lol!

You did a lovely job on her face up, and I love her dress! I hope she does find her wormwood!

[absynthe1972]

Thanks Aeilia. That dress was going to give me a serious case of the fidgets, though! lol! She'll find her wormwood sooner or later. Probably later because it might be a bit too late in the year to plant any if I order seeds. It will probably have to wait until next spring. lol!

Sewing organza is definitely-ugh-but the dress came out beautifully and the story is cute.

I agree. Organza is an ugh! The dress is cute, though. Thanks. Gerschy says thank you regarding the story, too.

It's a gracefaerie pattern. I just made some mods to it, which was adding sleeves, faking the cuffs and instead of a skirt, adding that to the bodice. lol!
