Classic lolita dress - finished

Well the basic dress is finished. I made the sleeves out of long rectangles and sewed channels between the fabric and lining for the elastic. The ruffle at the bottom was a bit fiddley.

No lace or ribbons yet. Still undecided if I want to co-ordinate it with white or a more antique/off white/cream. I might make some removeable black bows - they might tie it in with some black shoes.

Unfinished Projects

Today I am thinking about projects that never got finished. Probably because I have been stalling rather over my coat...
So I have decided to get all the half finished projects out of the box and see if I am inspired to finish them. There is currently a cream JSK made from a cream fabric with pin tucks in it and a sweet pink OP which is mostly a pattern prototype made of basic cotton.
Both of these have been cut out and pinned but not sewn together.
I think there is also some sort of Tartan affair that I started some time ago but decided was terribly unflattering...
