Marquee dress
Finished! Well, not technically...I remembered that I forgot I wanted to put a pocket in. But that won't take long. And I need to take the undersleeves out of the grey dress, wash them, and tack them in this dress. Which I should do sooner rather than later
But other than those little details, finished!
I took some uber-crappy pictures on Mabel for proof, too. I'm not unreservedly thrilled with it, for little nitpicky reasons I won't get into now, because I need to get dressed and do my makeup for the Halloween party I'm going to (have decided to wear the Ugly 1920s Dress, braid my hair, and go as Wednesday Addams). But I like it well enough to wear it, and it had better be cold for Gettysburg, because my 500 pounds of dress and I demand it!
(Well, it's 10, with most of that in the skirt. My hoop is not entirely thrilled with that, and needs a bit of help re-inflating after I get up from a chair while wearing this dress. Good times. But it's super warm!)
I likes my buttons. :) They're just plastic joann's ones, which is really obvious from the back, but I think they look pretty nice from the front!
The wrinkling in the bodice from the "oh god I've got a 500-lb skirt attached whyyyyyy" is a little less horrible on me, as I have more of a hip to rest the weight on than Mabel does.
