It is always a worry to take pieces of three different patterns and hope the whole thing fits together in the end, but the Frankenstein dress is taking shape. The zipper is in–the biggest hurtle. As Sparkle Jane has a very small waist, the fit there isn’t quite form-fitting, but a sash will go a long way towards fixing that.

Today is a holiday from school (President’s Day) so there is a good possibility it will be finished. Update coming as soon as there is something to share.
Thanks for all your kind comments and encouragement. This would be much harder without sympathy from friends.






You are so creative–and so BRAVE!
Some of these fabrics can be so difficult to work with. Lots of pins and hand basting and. They tend to tame. Keep with. It, looking good.
Wow!! You are a brave, brave woman!! I can’t wait to see how this looks on your daughter!! Have a great day off from school!!
That’s looking good! I can hardly wait to see it finished and modeled. I totally forgot about President’s Day. That’s what happens when every day is a holiday. =)
it is lovely..the color is so elegant…i know it will fit perfectly…maybe the sash will be the chocolate brown you wanted the lace to be..is it for a special occasion?? looks like a party dress to me..can hardly wait to see it finished and modeled…
