still sewing, I promise

Jeez, those darts took for-EV-er to fit. I didn't have a ton of sewing time the past two days (there was, among many other things, a duck waiting to be made into soup), so it was all taken up by darts. Seriously. Easy to fit, but every little tweak meant I had to take the whole thing off, re-pin, put back on and button up...et cetera, et cetera. The joys of fitting on oneself!

Tonight I want to get the top bit of the collar pad stitched (it's small, so this seems reasonable), then tomorrow I'm off so I can get a good chunk of it sewn. We hope.
