Oh, and those tucks in the skirt? They were a huge mistake. See...... I had the skirt finished and the bodice finished and I needed to still cut out the waistband. So I cut it out..... of the SKIRT! I thought it was scrap and really did panic when I realized. Now my skirt was too short. I ended up inserting a panel in the middle of the skirt and putting tucks in to cover up the seams. PHEW!
Till next time!

I do a lot of improvising when I sew too! :)
ReplyDeleteSuper! The fit looks really nice! Love the blue bow and belt. Where did you get the buckle?
I paid way to much at a reenactment for that buckle :D I love it though and am glad I did!
ReplyDeleteBethany...no one will notice it. It looks just lovely on you :)
ReplyDeleteIt is usually at the end of the project that I begin to get inspired to change it...sometimes it is a good idea, but other times - not so good :(
But I am glad that you are done with the dress...does it need a collar - yes, it looks as if something is missing.
Thank you for sharing :)
I LOOOVE it!!! So pretty. You did an excellent job, especially in 12 hours! ;)
