Four little white frocks and six little Inspector Gadget trench coats
with buttons and shoulder tabs!

Bit of a marathon, getting them all done, but as a fast job it was worth
it in the end. :)

I did the patterns using Wild Ginger Boutique and Tailor made. Given
that this is software for *adult* patterns and these kids were aged five
to eleven, I think it did a remarkably good job. :) Now this one is
finished, I can contemplate my next purchase. I'll probably get more
use out of the kid's stuff, so I think I may get Child's Play nest
rather than Curves. I'm off to have a play with the Child's Play demo...

Still on the books:
One jacket for Wednesday: needs minor alteration and then the lining and
trim
One jacket alteration (one I made earlier)
One set Victorian bloomers and chemise
One Victorian Corset
One skirt conversion
One Victorian bodice with Pagoda sleeves
One Regency paeliise

The Victorian set all go together, and those and the Regency pelisse are
all due at the end of May.

Those are great!! Now do we have to say Go-go-Gadget-Kate!! when
addressing you? ;) They really are great and I agree with you Child's
Play might be a really good purchase.

It took AAAGGGEEESSS to get all the patterns done in the stuff I had. I
just played with the demo and got better looking results in minuts
because I didn't have to argue every measurement! :D Maybe when the
cheque clears from this lot... ;)
