Progress!

The graduation dress is coming along fabulously! I am makIng OOP  Butterick 5277 with a teal color embroidered stretch satin. The embroidery is thin little vertical vines with little flowers scattered. I decided to use the matte side, which makes the flowers satiny, which gives an elegant look. Fitting has been going well and zipper goes in tomorrow, so hopefully by days end tomorrow I will have a dress to show. It feels so good to be sewing for me again. I have several other projects in the works. Stay tuned!
