robinsnestMy first Biology quiz is tomorrow so I spent the morning studying and did do as much sewing as I could have.
I pinned my mock up sleeve on and it seemed to have fit pretty well all things considered. I added several inches to the width of the sleeve as I've found that sleeve tiny before, but while it fit great at the top it was huge on the bottom and also far too long. Rob very nicely put sharpie dots on me where I pointed and I took it off and copied off a real pattern. and I *gulp* cut my sleeves out of silk and linen lining. I decided to finish the bottom hems before setting them, seemed simpler to not deal with the whole giant dress. And that's what I've been poking at on the couch tonight.
Tomorrow after class I set these suckers...*crosses self and makes offering to the costume gods*
