Molly's Dress: Finished!



Yep, it's actually finished! I've taken my time on the last bits - I don't know about you but I could so easily imagine coming this far and wrecking it in the final stages. So, it's been slowly slowly here.
Funny thing is I'm so relieved and sorry at the same time. It was a project I'd thought way beyond my reach that has really challenged me. I haven't given myself a challenge in a while but it's actually a very invigorating thing to do. I'd forgotten how satisfying it is to extend yourself. Okay, enough grinding the organ! Moralising over. I can finally say it: Drumroll please! Molly's dress is done.
Tell me about your latest challenge?

Tomorrow



I've been very busy today on Molly's dress - lots of close sewing of embroidered bits and my eyes are popping! (I think I'm ready for a new pair of sewing specs!) I wonder if eye strain affects the brain? It could have something to do with my true confessions of a weather geek below too....
More on Molly's dress tomorrow.
