An attempt at stash reduction will take place in 2011.
The first is a Regency dress for Mr. Fezziwig’s Ball at the Riverside Dicken’s Festival.

The starting point is McCall’s pattern 3954 version A. The right side of the dress form.
Alterations were made for narrow shoulders, round back, and a full bust. The left side of the dress form.

Additional changes are marked on the fabric with a red marker for round two of the alterations. I average three mock-ups. Two for the bodice and one more for the sleeves.
The lovely pumpkin pattern material was specifically bought for mock-ups for a dollar a yard.
More to come.
