I have the over dress, I need to make a patten and cut the lining, sew them together and add the underskirt (which is made)

Shall we have bets on whether I can do it or not?

Pattern made, lining cut (in between spray painting shoes)

On my way

Go KatyMac [impressed with your skills]

Very impressed you are sewing her costume and I thought I had a busy day today ironing 4 lots of outfits for tomorrow!!

Did you make her outfits at Easter? - they were fab.

What comp are you at tomorrow?

KatyMac · 12/05/2012 14:02

Guildford - NATD

Umm I created them at Easter rather than made them; tweaking a prom dress & an old Ballroom & Latin were amalgamated to make the Latin

Stopping for a bacon sarnie & a cuppa (made by DH who is also doing tomorrows packed lunch)

It may be finished by tomorrow but I think I will re-sew the seams after the comp - it's a bit rough & ready

Finished

I think I'll need to re-do the hem & re-cut the lining under one arm......but it's wearable

Pictures tomorrow night - IF she wears it as we now find out, we aren't sure of the rules
