ANOTHER UPDATE: Sleeves are on.

UPDATE: Photo of bodice section.

I’ve almost finished making the bodice section of V8555. 

I’ll take some photos this afternoon. I’m so proud (so far). I bought the fabric and pattern from Tessuti’s in Chatswood. The lining is 100% silk which I had in my stash and because the fabric itself was expensive I decided to make the lining just as luxiourious.

I love going in to Tessuti’s but I spend more money on fabric then what a dress would cost. But I can’t help it. It’s like candy for me. Wouldn’t you agree Michelle?
