Yaaaawn. All right, so I'm a bum and decided this morning it's not in my best interests to finish the polka-dot dress now. Partly because I started getting twitchy about not sewing on K Parr for so long, partly because I realized I don't have a zipper in the right length/color, and partly because it's a fairly full skirt and I don't want to hem it! :P But the obnoxiously printed dress is all nice and finished, and I'm quite fond of it! Guess that means I'll have to either wear an old dress or one of my vintage dresses instead of the polka-dot. Oh no, what a tragedy. ;)

So, sewing time today was devoted to Katherine Parr. I pieced the pockets together (scrap linen fronts and navy silk backs) til I got bored with them (which didn't take long), and then sewed spangles. More spangles! And kept dropping them. There's going to be a sparkly trail to everywhere I've sat and sewed recently.
