robinsnestWe had another sewing party today. This time we got to check out ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mandie_rw's HUGE new sewing room...I think it's bigger, no I KNOW it's bigger than my whole living room/dining room combo. I am envious.
I showed up with a fitted mock up and I took home a bodice that was assembled everywhere but the side seams, had all it's button holes and a zipplock baggie of 21 self covered buttons. While watching the football game tonight I have sewn on all of said buttons.
Alice's bodice has no sleeves, but the fit is nice and the fabric is purty.
Amanda is making a basket.
Erin is making a mock up
Look I made tiny blue buttons.
Fitting the aforementioned mock up.
Amanda looking unimpressed
I got to drink tea from the super pretty glass.
I do think covered buttons are crazy pretty...although sewing and making 21 tiny ones IS kind of a pain.
So that just leaves: Sleeves, Facing the bodice skirts, finishing the neckline, adding boning...oh and an entire over skirt. Not the BEST place to be 6 days before the event, but not the WORST shape I've ever been in...
