Let's start the show...

... as Heidi would say. I'm watching Project runway while writing this post, my favourite show! Anyways, now I would like to introduce you to my current sewing project. I am making a prom dress for my little sister, and it is slowly but steadily coming along. She wanted a dress that looked something like this dress, worn by Eva Green in Casino Royale:


Isn't it nice? And also fairly complicated. I have been working on this dress for a long while now, designing and re-designing and making endless lines of muslins. But now I have finally cut into the real fabric. Yay!
This is where I am at the moment:


Whew, draping is hard. Not quite my forte, but I'm learning. One thing complicating this sewing process is that my sister is living 1000km away (literaly, not an exaggeration). But hopefully, she will come visit me on sunday. Looking forward to seeing her, and fitting the dress on her! Therefore; hard work awaits this weak to have a fairly finished dress by sunday.
Well well, work day tomorrow, time for bed. See ya!
