1884 Reception gown
Not much time for sewing since we moved and I miss you guys!! However, I did mostly finish the bodice to the 1884 reception gown (if you forget, it's here: http://madamemodiste.livejournal.com/107909.html)
It still needs sleeve cuff trim and some lace at the bust, but it's generally done. I wore it to Linsey and Duncan's wedding a week and a half ago.
No plans to make anything until the semester is over next month, so I'll have to live vicariously through you ladies!

Just be careful that your fabric for the polonaise isn't too stiff/crisp or it won't do the drapery effect well in the back. I learned that lesson myself when I used a satin taffeta that was too crisp for the 1886 asymmetrical drapery add-on. Opps! But I bet the bengaline will be perfect.
