Sewing Post!

[isabelladangelo]

I just attached the skirt to the bodice of the Venetian gown. It looks awesome. I did the pointed back that appears in a couple of different paintings. The skirt is pleated. I made the bodice straps off the shoulder which is more in line with the 1560's style. I need to finish the sleeves, sew the inside, and add the lacing rings. Knowing me and my procrastination rates of late, this might be done next week!

The fabric is the burgundy/wine and gold jacquard I think I mentioned a few weeks ago. So far, I'm really pleased with the gown. It just *looks* right.
