I'm still working on the dress - 2 weeks to the wedding! And its pretty much done :D Its two buttons away from being wearable, then theres a few more small pieces of lace I'd like to sew on - when I put the dress on the dummy to pin the hem of the lining, I realised there were a few spots where it wasn't quite symetrical, and I'd like to fix them! But if I run out of time, I know that in fact I'm the only one who'd notice it (not to mention the only one who'd walk round and round the dress trying to spot imperfections!)
I'm 90% decided to leave the foundation bodice off - the difference it makes is so small I'm not sure its worth the discomfort - after all, I'm gonna be wearing it for more than 12 hours, I don't want to be in pain by the end of it! I think, if i ever get to make wedding dresses proffesionally, I'll take a short course and learn how to do it really well!
Final thing, petticoat needs a little work on the train supporting section - amoung other things at the moment its attached with pins which stick me in the bum every time I bend over!
No pictures, you'll have to wait an extra couple of weeks for the big reveal!
