Bodice Beautiful

Well, I think it's pretty beautiful, anyhow. I finished the Wedding Dress Bodice yesterday. This afternoon, I'll start cutting the skirts. It is going smoothly. Perhaps too smoothly... Did I just jinx myself??

Here's the muslin from that other Vogue pattern. I need to put on a ruffle so as to cover the waterfront. I'll get to it one of these days. Weather's getting nicer, so I'll have an incentive.

This is the one that I finished. Nice ironing job, eh? Well, whatever. Check out the awesome new shoes! ($30 at 6pm.com!) I got them in red and light blue (for el wedding dress). Had to stretch them, but they seem pretty great so far. A $7 shoe stretcher from Target is one of the best things I've ever purchased. Seriously. If you have fat feet like me, it is a life saver. How did I ever live without it??

Also, I got a haircut. I'm trying to grow out the bob before August, so it is vaguely shaped that way for when it grows in. Today eet ees fluffy!
