Tuesday Afternoon

I maybe shouldn't be posting this because the dress isn't technically finished. It still needs fasteners on the back, and three of the seams inside need overcast. But I got tired of working on it for the day, and didn't want to wait until tomorrow to post a picture. This is one of my repro Bleuettes modeling. The dress fabric is a polished cotton floral from probably the late 40's- early 50's. The collar and sleeves are organdy from the same time period.. really nice crispy stuff. I adore the old fabrics.. everything about them. You just can't buy anything like this today. Although that stuff I just got from Japan is really super.
I am loving all the new blogs I'm coming across. What a fun thing! So many nice people with so much creativity.. all over the world.

Think I'll finish this dress tonight. I'll feel better about it then.
