Ta daaa....!

So I have spent an ENITRE week on this outfit, I have learnt many things, most of all how I am really bad at picking costumes I actually have the skill to make!

Also now I Have a top 3 sewing things I hate:
1. Button holes
2. Ruffles
3. Sleeves (with narrow hemming a close 4th)

I have also managed to completely mess up the front with bad button hole skills (and an over eager button hole ripper...yeah... :( ). Which is bad. Because its on the front. I am about to try and fix this by adding more cogs than I was going to. Cogs fix everything :D (hopefully)

And here are the pics, more to follow hopefully after the event on Wednesday for which it has been made!
Note: I only made the jacket and skirt - the corset was bought :)

Also apparently my special skill is to float in the air! (wishing I'd made the skirt a touch longer now!)
