The green velvet dress is finished!

After what seems like days of working on those enormous sleeves, the green velvet dress is finally finished!

Just in time too - Faerierhona's coming over to collect it tomorrow, and it's going to be worn on New Year's Eve.

I'm not kidding about the sleeves though. It took me longer to sew on all that trimming and get the sleeves finished, than it did to make the whole of the rest of the dress!

I can't express to you how pleased I am with this.

It couldn't be further removed from the sort of clothes I normally sew, but it's been an absolute joy to work on.
