wednesday. 11:15pm. i'm finished the second item... this is a labor of love! i'm actually glad i'm involved in the challenge, because otherwise i would've given up this evening. but i kept going and completed the ice cream dress pattern by oliver+s.
well, almost.... i kind of forgot to put the pockets on... and now it just seems like too much work to go back and put them on! plus, i like the way the dress looks without the pockets, but i may have to put an applique or something on the front just to break it up a bit. what do you think? should i add something to it? or does it look fine just the way it is?
instead of the circus this evening i spent the afternoon cutting and getting things ready, then i had to run out to a meeting that i almost forgot i had. stopped by a friend's on the way home and finally sat down to finish the dress at 9:30pm. took some photos and voila!
