bedgown update
The bedgown will be finished on time. I had to stop and take a break to get matching thread so here is my update before the finial push. Despite the thread-fetching and two toiles, the bedgown is almost done. It's basically a kimono bodice so it has two seams, two cuffs and lots of hemming. Even with the toiling, I'm digging this servant attire thing for B! :>
I'm using a cheap *mostly* cotton from Wal-Mart so I'm having to finish all the edges. Just a quick glance and the fabric starts to ravel. If I were a dedicated costumer I should have French or felled the seams but instead I'm zig-zaging them to death. Cheater!!
And I don't feel a single pang of guilt either, isn't that terrible? :> Sewing ADD strikes again. *evil laugh* Okay, enough frivolity for the evening... back to work!
