I made good progress on the ball gown yesterday. Ooh it’s really looking like a ball gown now! I tacked down the zone trim and started on the one side of the skirt (any place you see sequins it’s sewn). I need to make more trim obviously, to finish the bottom and the other side. I want to add a second band to the sleeves too, but only if I have time.

The petticoat is all done, except for some trimming. I have a little piece of the gold pinned on and that little bit seems enough to tie it into the gown. I don’t want to go too wild on the petticoat as ultimately I want a different petticoat for the gown (a gold silk satin I think, or maybe a shot bronze taffeta or something like that). I also want to make a jacket ensemble with the cream and I don’t know how I want to trim that yet. I’m not sure I’ll have enough of the baby gold trim, I bought out JoAnns supply yesterday and don’t particularly want to drive to PM for more. I have some other gold trims laying about so I could just use one of them instead if needs be.
