Lace cape

At least I finished something! Beige satin overlaid with black net lace.

Yeah, *hangs head in shame* it's the only one finished so far. It was more time consuming than it appears, and surprised me. Between the flat felled seams, understitching that endless hem, keeping the lace strips in line, and the double collar, it took longer than I expected. I thought this baby would be done in an afternoon, but that was impossible. However, I'm really pleased with the pattern and how it makes up.

This is for either costume wear or special events (wedding, Christmas party, etc). And it's kind of reversible because of the flat felled seams.
