Bridesmaid 2006

I am making the bridesmaid's dress that I will wear in Joe and Jessica's wedding. My original inspiration came from this wedding dress bodice picture that has been in my files for quite a while. My plan is based on Vintage Vogue #2903, and Sense & Sensibility's Swing pattern. I am also thinking of doing some piping around the neck edge and along the edges of the cummerbund.

Working on the toile for this dress has been on my t0-do list for the last two days...hopefully I'll get to it tomorrow. I have less than three months to complete this, and I was hoping to get some other clothes done to augment my wardrobe before I go out to California for the wedding.
