I said I'd finish something, and I actually finished it?? Don't get used to it.

Am quite pleased with this quickie dress! The only bad thing about it is that the tulle sleeves catch on lots of things, especially the unfinished edges of the sequin fabric. Especially the hip ties. If I were very dedicated I'd go back and bind them or something, but...eh. See how much they annoy me at the first wearing of the dress, and go from there.

Somewhat belatedly I realized I might feel dumpy in this sack, if everyone else wears slim teens dresses or kicky later 20s dresses...but, being the only one around dressed up tonight, I like it very much! And if nothing else it's very shiny.

The hair and accessories could use a little work, I know. ;)


You can hardly see the sleeves at all in these dim indoor pics, but I promise they do exist!


You can sort of see them when the blinding light in the other room is turned on. Sort of.


Wow! It's exactly the same from the back!

Thank you! I think we will! Downton Abbey-themed cocktail party in an historic house, how can we go wrong? :D

Thank you! Good thing it's not held out in the sunlight; I'd blind everyone! ;)
