Almost there....

[sakon76]

Dress *almost* done. I stopped at Michael's Crafts (the one nearest my workplace) after work and have decided that particular store probably sucks. Me (after wandering the ribbon and embroidery aisles): "Do you have any silk ribbon embroidery supplies?" Salesgirl: "Um, I think the embroidery stuff is on aisle 29...." Maybe she's new; I'll cut her that break. But in any case it means I didn't find a suitable ribbon for drawstrings. But I came home after grocery shopping and finished the last drawstring casing while making dinner, and put in the cotton cording I'd used on the mock-up. Liz pinned where the skirt touches the ground, giving me a hem line, and we decided I might want a hook/bar combo halfway between the waist and neckline drawstrings. So... finishing tomorrow? For now, bed.
