Plans

Naomi was starting to feel quite comfortable...

...and she was having a very nice time....

"So...what are your plans?"

"Well....there's the wedding..."

"I've always dreamed of an outdoor wedding, and your Mother has the most beautiful garden...."

"So....that means not until this summer then?"

"Yes....I suppose so...."

Baron was secretly a little disappointed. Summer seemed like such a long way off.

Monica turned to Naomi...."Have you given any thought as to what you'd like to do in the meantime? Baron tells us that you are quite the accomplished seamstress."

"Yes, I've always loved sewing, and working with beautiful fabrics.  Back home I had a dress shop, and I was thinking I might like to do that again here as well."

"That would be wonderful!  Our Royal Dressmaker left last year, and we've had to have everything custom made just by measurements, then sent here from the continent. It was so much nicer to be able to chose fabrics in person... as well as being able to go for fittings and watch the gowns being made.  Plus, I think it's important to help support our local economy. So, if there's anything I can do to help, please let me know."

"Thank you Ma'am.  I really appreciate that. Being new here, I will definitely need some advice on sourcing supplies. Especially when it comes time to make my wedding gown."
