That's just lovely, Kate!! The skirt lies beautifully and the boning made a
huge difference in the bodice. Very smooth. Was so pretty, I wanted to
pet it. ;)

Thank you. I *do* keep going and fidgetting with it, I have to admit.
It'll look even better with a chemise under it...

Very nice! I particularly like the color choice and the little pleats.
My school uniform was that color in high school and I liked it.

The hand stitching on the shoulders is nice and neat. I avoid hand
stitching like the plague.

Thank you. The pleats were a bit of a bear to do, but went OK once I
got them all going the right ways round! :D

I taught in a school that had a very similar green for their uniform. I
always thought it looked good.

I find it very theraputic, when my hands can stand it. Sometimes the
fibro makes hand stitching difficult. This time it just went really nicely.

I forgot to mention how much I enjoyed seeing the Bernina too. It is the
same color as my 530.
