Finished my 1935 evening dress! I feel like May West in the dress - all curves. I love the "barely staying up" feel of this dress.

The pattern is from a 1935 drafting system, though getting the drafting to work around my bust to waist ratio was a challenge. And a challenge again to make sure the heavy bread work stayed in place. The bead work design is my own, and took about 6 weeks to complete.

The silk satin charmeuse is from Dharma Trading and was with the devil or heaven to deal with, with nothing in between.

A sage green silk dress with a cowel neckline and heavily beaded shoulders. The dress has a narrow belt, with a gold rhinestone belt buckle.
A close up of the beadwork in the sun, being worn. The beads just sparkle in the sunlight.
A shoulder of the dress laid out so you can see the detail of of the beadwork. A collection of 9 curved leaves in gold and brown seed beeds, overlaying each other. They are echoed in gold seed beads. Bugle beads swirl around them , in near orderly rows so they can catch the light.
A close up of the belt buckle and belt. There are two triangles of fabric above the belt, top stitched.

Exciting day! Trying to feel less sick by force of will, so I'm doing some quilt layouts. Hoping if I have a less messy room (by virtue of finishing these projects), I'll feel better. lol. (Believe it or not, this has worked for me in the past. I at least feel like I got something done, eh?)

Here's the underside of a quilt top I've been working on for 2+ years, actually. #quilt #crafts #MadeByMe

Underside of a quilt with a LOT of multicolored stripes sewn together. Borders are black with rainbow dragonflies on them. It's lying on my wooden floor at the moment.
