Lots of Progress

[atherleisure]

I gave myself all of Sunday afternoon to be idle. That meant reading four short stories out of Mr. Mulliner Speaking and working on the 1908 eyelet dress. I made a lot of progress - the skirt is in one piece, the jumper bodice is assembled pending fitting, and the waist is well under way. I worked on the waist more last night so it just needs a collar and sleeves to be finished. It's actually a separate garment from the combined jumper and skirt, which it took a couple of readings of the pattern to realize. I may end up basting the two pieces together at the waistline if they don't want to cooperate.
