In which I make pretty trim

I used scraps of the brocade to make self fabric sashes which I arranged into loops at the right side of the overskirt. Helps to pull the overskirt and underskirt together. I still want to get some lilac ribbon, too. I've already begun cutting out the ballgown bodice.

You know, I went back and looked at that pattern on the TV site and I much prefer the body and overall silhouette your material has given you. Oddly enough I didn't like the drawing and it never would have tempted me to make it but after seeing your pictures I think my mind has been changed.

Oh, thank you!

I'm laughing because the same thing happened with me regarding the TV 362 wash overskirt and the TV 405 Vest Basque. If you hang around the Belle Alley long enough, you begin to like ALL of the patterns when you see how people bring them to life!
