Still haven't learnt to take a decent picture though.
On the right: New Look 6000 in brown ponti. I did the boat/scoop neck instead of the collar, and extended the shoulders to make cut-on cap sleeves instead of the ones in the pattern (much as I love the cuffed sleeves, I was being... lazy is the only way to say it).
I was pleased with the result. Although seeing Livebird's collared-and-cuffed version, i think I'll have to make the effort next time!
I also made a slip from Sew-knit-n-stretch #212:
This ended up being quite quick to make, and turned out rather nicely. I made it from lace and a stretch satin I had left over from a previous slip project:

Nice big brooch on that frock and you're ready to go. Luscious.
The slip is gorgeous.
Good work Ms Mog.
Great dress for showing off your curves. Well done!
I too have gotten into the dress mode and love that slip...practical and beautiful. You'll enjoy knowing it's under those lovely dresses.
I just traced this pattern off over the weekend, so it's nice to see it made up on a real person. It's a great dress and I like your choice of fabric very much. Very cute retro style. I'm inspired now. Thanks!
