Done! Haha, not really

(There's one sad small line of gathered voile on it now, which I think looks more pathetic than if there was no trim at all. You tried? LOL)
Don't have much left for trim - in a relative sense, for the 18thc. I'll be fine for the gown itself, but I don't think there's going to be much in the way of a petticoat flounce. I could always buy more, I guess - it's sold in 2.5y lots and I don't want to overbuy, but a petticoat flounce would probably eat that right up. Will have to decide on that soon, as it ships from India and can take a while! I'll cut the dress trim and then see how much I have left.
