Okay, so not the entire thing. The boning channels for the lining are machine sewn. And the petticoat is machine sewn. But the bodice pieces are being handsewn together and I'll probably do another mix of machine/hand sewing for the trim. Unfortunately, the way I'm putting the dress together, it just doesn't look right if it's not handsewn in certain areas.
The dress is pink and will had a pink silk and green velvet trim down the front. The stomacher is ivory with green velvet trim. I'm just wearing my old ivory petticoat that I think pretty much everyone had seen twenty times now. Very useful things those ivory petticoats. They go with everything!
No pictures -sorry! I lost the recharger for my camera at World's Fair and I have yet to go to Best Buy and get a new one. I'll do that tomorrow and then take pretty pictures! By then, the dress will probably be done... I'm going for a rather basic polonaise and, so far (the bodice only needs one more seam), it fits beautifully. :-)
