I did it!!

I managed to do what I wanted to do! I set out today to make Mummy's mantle, and I did! All it needs is a fastening at the throat, and maybe a fur collar (if I have enough left) and it's done! I also started crocheting a sontag and made a decorated net with matching neckbow. Finally a properly productive day :)
Any way, I took some photos, because I'm nice like that! They're ( this way )

So tomorrow I will work on the alterations I need to make - my pale blue day dress bodice needs the neckline making bigger, it's a V-neck but it's too high at the moment, has been since I made it, what, 2 years ago?! Then my pink silk day bodice needs new sleeves, I hat the ones it has now, and undersleeves too (I hate undersleeves :( But I know I do have to have them, so I'll just suffer I guess!) I may make the bodice smaller too, since I've been on the gallstone diet (low fat!!) I've lost quite a bit of chub! And now of course my entire wardrobe no longer fits :( The pink bodice is the only thing I can really alter though, everything else would be too much work, they all have skirts attached to the waist piping.
