Well, once again I am taking forever to get pictures of my finished wool dress to you all! I still don't have close ups or anything but this one picture will have to do :) If you want more detailed pictures of the bodice you can look at
my previous post. Other than that, I added a batiste collar with
heirloom cotton lace from
Martha Pullen and a velvet bow. The skirt has knife pleats, blue hem tape, and a plaid kick plate. It was all I had on hand and it does the job :) The whole thing closes with a dog leg placket.
The first time I wore it was a few weeks ago. The weather could not be more perfect and I had a lovely time (and lovely company!) as my flying geese quilt was quilted.

You can kind of see my sewing kit (housewife) and thread and such in this picture.
As Always,

Your dress is beautiful. The quilt is stunning, I have never been able to quilt.
ReplyDeleteDo you quilt without a frame? Any tips? I've tried it a couple times, but it went horribly for me!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work. I am selling a bunch of patterns on etsy if you are interested.
