lemonade dress

The dress for belvidere progresses. I got a fraction of the sewing done this weekend I thought I would. There are several kinds of sewers I know. Some are increadibly fast and make masterpieces ([livejournal.com profile] koshka_the_cat) some are slow and meticulous and make masterpieces ([livejournal.com profile] mandie_rw), and then there's me. I seem to both be increadibly slow, and yet sloppy and never quite as perfect as I'd like...you see I'm not slow because I'm meticulous. I'm slow because I have zero attention span and wander away.

That said, the dress is in this state.

Bodice:
Cut out

Skirt:
Structurally done, bottom row of pleats on.

Over skirt:
untouched.

If I assemble the bodice after work tomorrow, set sleeves on thursday then I can over skirt and finishing friday when I get out early....it won't be NEARLY as nice or finished as I dreamed...but it'll be wearable?
