In which I post a picture of the dress I made last weekend.
It’s made of rayon knit. I had already drawn the pattern for the 4-panel skirt, so for this project I copied a favorite long-sleeved t-shirt for the bodice, and made up the cowl – which is big enough to be a hood or a capelet – as I went along.
It is not now, nor will it probably ever be, hemmed.
I really want a serger!

Now you are a sewing rock star!
Yay! It almost makes up for not having a band! -m
Bootifull! Especially that 2nd picture, wherein you demonstrate that one can be covered from neck to ankle and still be sexy ;-). Nice sewing–I think you should get a serger now.
Aw, thank you! *blush*
You think so, do you? Perhaps I shall! I wonder how long it takes to learn to thread those things… -m
What about the trip to Portland? Ya gunna do that for me or not?
Jay’s going in a few weeks; he replied to you about it but you never responded. (Plus I don’t really want to do it; his truck needs tires – badly – and I’m not on the insurance anyway.) -m
That is so cute! And your fav color.
AND you are TOTALLY. HAWT. AT. 40.
Aw, thanks hon! -m
What JP said was that he had lost his license and couldn’t do it.
The last email I got on this topic said, “It’ll probably make it. I’m goin out there in April anyway to catch a plane… can it wait till then?” If you’ve had further discussions, I didn’t know about them because I wasn’t CC’d. -m
