I haven’t posted much because my next project is still in process. It would normally not take too long, but I had to take care of orders from the end of the Birthday Sale at Gorgeous Fabrics (thank you all for your wonderful wishes!)
And on top of that, thanks to the nature of the underlined lace, I wanted to finish the seams. I decided to do a semi-couture finish and hand stitch the lace to the silk underlining.
Took a while, but it was well worth it.
Today is DH’s birthday. Happy birthday, my love! We went out to dinner with BF Barb and her husband Kevin, whose birthday is next Saturday. I wore my Vogue 8825 dress, and DH took a picture:
Yee-ep, it’s a keeper!
That’s all for tonight. Happy sewing!
I love this dress and I love the fabric. Everything about it is perfect. I have this pattern in my queue for when the weather cools down.
You look fabulous in that beautiful dress!
I’m gearing up to do some sewing again. Ended up with my mother’s vintage Singer (which does a wonderful job of sewing knits) and have been very inspired by your fabric selection and blog.
What a gorgeous dress. The pattern is delightful.
Pretty dress, great colors and contrast value on you. Loving the new shape to your haircut, too. & Happy B’day to the Mr Gorgeous
