at last a photo post!!
Mar. 25th, 2008 08:38 pmi've been uploading all the photos from my camera all evening :) so here you are, some pics of mummy's last fitting (the photos of the previous fitting aren't really decent :)
here she is in the dining room, in my petticoat, with the puppy in shot too :)

i'm quite pleased with the shape her corset gives her, the gussets could be a bit smaller i think, but better too big than too small :p

obligatory puddle of skirts shot, but on a sofa to make allowances for mummy's more advanced years !!

and she insisted on 'wearing' her new fabric :) its a silk taffeta we got in new york last year, it isn't nearly as shiny in real life, one of the few instances when a fabric is better in photographs than in real life!


so now all i need to do is actually pull my finger out and SEW!!!! ( i have been sewing all weekend, but i don't think doll's clothes reeealy count, mummy can't really wear a doll's dress to the ball now can she :)
