Shrug and a return to the Laurel Uniform Project.

It's getting really cold and I need to finish this shrug.  So here I go.  Look how much I took off the sleeves!  That would be the line sewn into the sleeve area.  Then I trimmed and bound.
 
Attaching binding on the edge of the sleeve.
 
And to the inside.  Matt's out of town and I wasn't in the mood for a self-capturing of the final product, so an official picture will come later.
 
And here we have a muslin of the Laurel Dress.
 
And here I am wearing it.  It's too loose in the front, but guess what?  I'm going to sew it that way anyway.
 
The back looks good, but could be taken in a bit across the seat.  But guess what?  It's getting sewn this way.

I'm ready to be done with the uniform project. Which isn't really the best way to sew, but there you have it.

  1. I'm looking forward to seeing a picture of the shrug! I really like the style of the back of that dress.

  2. I keep linking forward to the final products. Sounds like you are too. If only the sewing fairies would come by and help.
