Field of daisies
Aug. 17th, 2010 08:36 pmWoohoo !!! I. Am. Excited.
I just basted the sleeves in and tried the polonaise on... and it looks pretty darn awesome ! Pinned the trim in place to check distance from the edge. There's going to be more around the neckline and at the wrists, plus some going all the way around teh bottom of the polonaise.

The skirt is now complete except for closures. Yeah, I know. I'm pressed for time, and I'll probably end up taking the train to the event. I can handsew buttons on the train. I can pin a skirt closed if necessary. I can't fake missing sleeves or missing trim.
The fabric isn't a light green, it's actually a bit darker with little flowers - see ? I was a bit hesitant but in the end I find it works for the dress.
And I leave you with a box of cuteness...
