More pictures. :)

Hello again. It's time for more pictures.
So here's my hoop. You can see it's REALLY a-line, like, a lot. WAY smaller than I would have liked.
So I definitely need to add a nice, big, fluffy flounced petticoat that's starched and all that, to get it a bit bigger and more dome shaped than the A-line I have now.
And just for the sake of it, here's the picture of me tripping while trying to move back in time for the camera timer.
plaid skirt over hoop.
One of my finished skirt panels! Don't you just love that color? So the yellow taffeta is gathered, then mounted on a muslin base. I gathered it in quarters, at a very scant edge. Then, I sewed it to the muslin base just inside the gathering stitches. In this picture, the bottom curve isn't sewed or trimmed, but I did that this morning. (All the rest was last night.)
So, there you have it! All my picturtes/progress so far! I hope you'll forgive me for taking so long to get them up, and I'll try to be better about it from now on. :)
See you later!
