Still sewing :)

The little print frock is taking rather longer than expected, but that could be because I'm being shamefully unproductive! The bodice is done, except for fastenings, and the skirt is half pleated, so it is nearly done, but I'm not working as quickly as I'd like!

As soon as it's done I'm going to make a couple of Regency day dresses for Clare, she's wearing Regency for our next demo and doesn't have any long sleeved day dresses, so I'm making a warm drop front fro if we have typical English August weather, and a cool muslin with a border print trim in case we get atypical weather and it's hot and sunny!

Slow or not the bodice looks amazing. I love the fabric and the fit is perfect!

Megan, you are so smart and I am so dumb. :D I never thought of doing the waistband on the bodice and then attaching the skirt. I always do it the other way but this makes MUCH more sense. It is far more fiddly to do the bodice. The skirt is easy. And once the skirt is attached, it is much thicker when doing the bodice. I am going to do it that way next time. :)

Glad to have helped :)

Have you guys thought any more about Hampshire in October? We have decided we are definitely going :)

I wonder if another one of my comments got lost? Yes, we've been thinking about it, but do you know if they have any tickets left?

[my-stitching.livejournal.com]

Sorry, LJ is being a butthead and I just got all of the notifications for the last couple of days!

According to the website, they still have tickets. We haven't bought ours yet either. :)

It's so pretty!! I just watched W&D this weekend and was very inspired by many of their cotton day dresses. I'm excited to see yours finished, it's going to be fab!

I love W&D! The costuming is fab, but it's the hair that has me weak at the knees!

I know what you mean, over the top just doesn't cut it! I'd never realized that Mrs. Gibson has an actual fan in her hair at some point, while holding one as well! It's just amazing!
