I had a fitting today and we took some photos :) They're
A photo with the lace pelerine, I can't decide if I should leave it as a collar (the ends at the front will tuck into a ribbon belt) or make it into a tucker?

The front without the pelerine, I love the sleeves, such a lovely puff :o) Also the skirt is just pinned on over the waistband.

Because the waistband isn't finished the back doesn't have the drawstring so it's overlapped a lot at the waist which is causing the bunching.

I'm halfway through sewing the cotton tape to the inside of the waistband, hopefully I'll get it done before we go to dancing, and now I've had the fitting I can do lots at work tomorrow. I have to be in till 9 or so, so I'll have lots of time to kill!!

Date: 2010-02-07 10:01 pm (UTC)I meant to say, put the lace as a collar onto a net tucker, so the lace would still be on top of the dress. Maybe if I leave it as a separate pelerine I could wear it to go to the dance, but take it off when we start to dance? Obviously I couldn't do that if it's on a tucker!!
The trouble is it's an afternoon dance, and I want this to look like an afternoon dress - I'm going to have long net undersleeves as well. maybe I should just make a net tucker with a frilled neck and use the lace for a different dress?
