Slowly Making Progress

The few days between Christmas and my granddaughter's birthday on New Year's Eve (which is an even bigger party, with house guests coming to stay with us) is so busy that it's hard to find time to work on Bianca's 'Christine' gown.  But I am slowly making progress.

Mostly it's all handwork done in the evenings while listening to TV. During the day, when the lighting is adequate, I try to finish taking the last 'North Pole' photos in the dining room. I need to be completely finished with ALL the Holiday photos, and have everything put away by Saturday, since I'm getting 2 and 4 year old houseguests, who like to 'play' with everything.

Anyways, there are five pointed panels over the skirt, and I have three done.  Just two pinned in place for this quick photo....

Here's a closer look at the details....

The most challenging thing has been trying to figure out the short draped piece in front.
​This is attempt number four.....and likely as good as it's going to get....

I know the white 'test' fabric stands out like a sore thumb, but I never cut into the good fabric until I'm satisfied. It will be red cotton with gold print, and gold trim when it's done.

​Well, time to turn on the TV and do more beading.....
