More May Sewing

Yesterday reminded me of working in a costume shop under time pressure for an opening! The jacket is nearly done. By 6:30 I was ready for a final fitting before I put in the buttonholes and do the finishing. I picked up the mess on the "cutting room floor" had a glass of wine, a hot bath, a little supper, and watched "An Education" - I recommend it. My friend who will wear the jacket came in the morning for a first fitting and took the trim to fray it out. I am not sure she wants me to share the details of her own dressmaking project, but she is making a linen dress to go with the jacket. The wedding is this Friday.
