Not bad, if I do say so myself. I'm still not ready to cut my brocade so I think I'll take a trip to the fabric shop and get some cheap and cheerful stuff to make a practise one on.

And the sleeves are in...
Today I set myself the task of fitting the sleeves in. Ignore their length, that has more to do with how much toile fabric I had left than anything else. I've also trimmed the neckline to it's approximate position just to see what this is going to look like.

That looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteWhat stays are you wearing?
And I love the "apples on a tray" look you have going on! It's going to take a bit of padding to make my décolletage that interesting ;-)
Just my plain canvas stays. Actually I was having a fit yesterday after I cut the neckline because I felt half naked...OMG! If anything I want a few less apples on my tray...sigh. But thanks for the nice comment.
ReplyDeleteI agree, looks stunning! Those stays seem to fit like a dream.
ReplyDeleteHaha! Thanks, I was just thinking how weird and creepy my posture appears in the first pic. Really must learn how to stand in a photo...ugh!
