I finished my dress. After doing the sway back adjustment I also lengthened the back darts. When I cut out the pattern I shortened it as its a mid calf length. I've obviously shortened it too much, but hey, its still ok.
Now its done and it fits like a glove.
Can't wait to wear it to work tomorrow.
Am doing headless shots because its Sunday and I look like a bag of sh*t! And you know what? I hate my elbows from behind. Thank god I never have to look at them.
It's destined to become a wardrobe staple!
