Joining up the parts!

I sewed lots of braid on today

Jacket and bodice, plus last week's photoshoot

I did some fitting alterations on the bodice today, and added some ruffles to the jacket sleeves.the bodice still needs some bones putting in.I shall join it to the skirt before putting fastenings in though. Here's also a photo from a photoshoot I did with my sister on Friday.She got some great photos of me playing in the lake in my boat sails dress. More are available on my Facebook page- www.facebook.com/duxburycostume
