Progress on my Wool! YAY IT"S FINALLY COMING TOGETHER!

Here are some pics... I've had to redo things it seems a hundred times!



No... that's not a green belt! That's my corset cause my skirt slipped. (I think I made it slightly big...)


Kind of a crummy pic... but can you see that the sleeve piping's nice now? :)


Sorry about the blur on this one...

Anyhow, a list of what I know need to do...

Pipe the waistline on the bodice, Sew the front placket, Do a faced hem on the skirt and attach the skirt to the bodice, bone the point which will be floated, and then put on hooks and eyes.

Actually, I need a poll here! Hooks and eyes, or Hooks and eyelets? What's the vote? eyelets are holes in the material that are sewn like buttonholes...

What d'ya think?

Don't forget to check out my website! bespokebyruth.weebly.com On a little side note to you... the first two purchases for dresses will only have to pay for material, thread, trim, and fifteen extra dollars for my work! That's a bargain! :)

God Bless! :D

  2. Thanks, Basch... unfortunately I think I might mess up on that and I already started doing hooks and eyes :( Oh well... when (If) I make a sheer I will probably do them :) Thanks for your feedback! :)
