Ok, I really can't stand abandoning a project that I have momentum on and switching gears, but deadlines are coming up. It's June! Eek!
So I am giving myself one more day on the Little House dress and tomorrow I will start the orange anglaise.
State of the Little House dress: one row of skirt pleats is on. I used the freezer paper method that![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
kaesha_nikovana suggested to make the pleats and it worked out pretty well. One more row of pleats to go, then sleeves, collar, and bodice finishing.
There is no deadline to wear this dress before coco so it makes sense to set it aside but it's going so well that I don't wanna! Especially since I have gotten bogged down several times with this project and now I finally have some momentum. So I will get as much done as I can today.
With 3.5 weeks to sew the orange anglaise, I am going to try to do it by hand. I am slow but I think I can do it. The construction seems pretty straightforward (famous last words?) so I can just enjoy the process.
Step one: bum pad. Then mock up the bodice. Then obtain some batiste and make a petticoat.
