Simplicity 2681-A Sunday afternoon project

The Sunday Sheath dress

12SEP

My Sunday was spent completing the sheath dress I started before summer.Actually it still is not completed technically.

One day out of this week Fabricland for the zipper purchase,and the sleeves and hem must be finished.

My husband actually decided yesterday to stay at home and watch the games(football) on TV,instead of his usually departure to hang out with the guys ,a tradition he had way before he even met me .

From 2-8 I spent it constructing the garment ,in between looking at a couple of Movies on TCM.

The reason I had stopped before was the fact after a while I decided I was not sure about the red polyester fabric.

.I seem to have a bad habit of this but the good thing is I also have this characteristic that letting fabric sit there ready for sewing and abandoned annoys me.

Initially the pattern had a waste band on it .I did not like it so I have removed that from what will be the finished product.

View 2 on it has a high collar but being a person who could never wear turtle necks ,as it just annoyed me having something around my neck like and the bow is cute ,but not for me .Therefore view 1 with out the waist belt was my choice.

I guess all together it was a useful Sunday spent !And I am glad I did  start on my mission to complete it  .

I am an ebay addict  Okay with over 500 feedback I guess I need to avoid that website as my bank account is feeling it !

Anyone can recommend a good therapist? But if I was not idle that night and wandering around ebay how would I ever of found this matching 60′s Italian purse to go with my wiggle dress ?:):)
