1920's Dress Started

I was really excited to get my patterns on Friday, and printed everything off.  I had some time (and inspiration) so got started with the base of the 1920's flapper type dress yesterday.  So far it doesn't look very exciting as it is just a shell of breathable lining with a plain silk Georgette overlay.




I have draped and cut the other fabric, one side is a lovely fine lace, and the other is Silk Georgette, with a lovely floral print on a black background.  It looks lovely on the model, although I have a couple of things to resolve.  I hope to get back to the machine tomorrow.

I have discovered that using the clover fork pins with these delicate fabrics works really well.
