It's starting to look like a dress!!

My sunflower sacque back that it! I ripped the 2 pannels for the back and stitched them together, then started pleating, I'm really pleased with how it' turning out! I have some photos from the fitting









We're going to be going to dancing soon, and I have work in the morning, so it'll be a little while before I get any more done, but hopefully I'll have enough energy tomorrow evening to do some sewing!

It's a beautiful color. I can see why you call it the sunflower.

Thank you! it's actually because of the braid, it's made up of sunflowers and leaves :)

So pretty so far!

And it's a good thing I decided on my striped pet en l'air for Sunday's dinner. I was thinking about making the school bus yellow sacque. We'd have been painful to look at together.

Yours is a much prettier shade of yellow. I love yellow :)

Lovely colour! Just like sunshine.

Very pretty color! And a good period color. If I wore yellow, I would look like I died in 1776. Looks nice on you!

Thank you! I love yellow :) I don't wear it very often in real life though.

Really lovely!! Is that the taffeta we both bought in LA a few years ago? It makes me want to pull my length from the stash and do something with it right away - yummy!

[mlsdesigns.livejournal.com]

No, it's some I got in New York the year before!! It's been sat in my stash ever since! Imissed out on the yellow you guys got at CosCol, I think this is golder, less lemon?
