I forgot to take a picture of the capelet, oops. Maybe tomorrow!

I did get all the lace sewn on the flounce last night (360 INCHES THANK YOU VERY MUCH), and pleated the skirt up today, and even put the hook and bar on, so I could try it on. Yay for legit fastenings. It did end up just a wee bit on the short side, but eh. Putting the flounce a half-inch lower will be good enough, and considering it's me, I wanted my ballgown on the shorter side of acceptable anyway. If it came out as long as the marquee dress, I'd definitely end up treading on it while dancing horribly, and falling on my ass. At this length it's only maybe. :D

Should probably do a bit more tonight before bed but, donwanna!

If we aren't all complete zombies by next week from lack of sleep, haha! I *was* amused that there were three posts in a row on my f-list about "ARGH GETTYSBURG SEWING"
