Orange you glad to see me?
I started working on a new overskirt for my purple victorian for the tiara and jampagne party this year. (I'm going to have an entire wardrobe of separates at this rate). I bought the fabric in NYC when we took
blackcat452 for part one of her bachelorette party.
This is the fashion plate
bethhsh found (she gave me five, I liked this one best). I have no idea where it's from :-) I just like it.

I started by referencing the TV208 that I used for my last overskirt and measuring where I'd like changes to be. This is what it looks like tonight (the back isn't poofed well just has a few pins wadding it up to get an idea)



I need to round the bottom corners of the back piece and fold the top edge of the over lap down to get that point. But I think it'll work. And I do love the orange and purple together. I know it's loud...but I like loud fabric choices.
Tomorrow I'm going to start roll-hemming a million yards of ruffles. won't that be fun.
