red won

In the end the red fabric won, it turned out to be gabardine (well I had crepe AND gabardine apparently, yay people showering me with wool! I have great friends). And I liked the idea of red trimmed with white.

I spent most of the weekend catching up on homework, working a few hours at Joann's, and picking up a bit in here (not as much as I SHOULD have mind you). But today I did some dress work. I got the dress cut out sans sleeves and collar as I haven't figured them out quite yet. Then I got a bee in my bonnet to do a scalloped, piped hem trim. I wasn't sure if this would be a TOTAL pita or just fiddly. So I made a test!




I think I want the scallops to be wider so I'll use something other than my drinking glass to trace, but otherwise, piped scallops is so a go.
