As promised-here is a picture of the cheongsam.
I couldn’t get it on a mannequin. I didn’t even ask. She was about to meet with a client so she let me use one of the rooms to hang it. The back is nothing special so there’s no picture of that. I asked her to send me pictures from the wedding so I may post one more with an actual person in it. What do you think?
Your dress is beautiful, absolutely beautiful!
Thanks Cathe! I really hope she likes it. We’ll see….
I think it looks stunning. Those matching up of darts are superb. A really pretty bit of tailoring. I hope you’re patting yourself on the back as well as being relieved it’s done! Well done!
I always hold my breath a little when I’m matching up darts. I won’t consider it done until she tries it on and it fits. Then I’ll sleep well! Thanks again Tempest.
I’ve had people ask me to sew things or knit things for them, and my heart slightly skips a beat each time… in a deer-in-headlights kind of way. I applaud you for your efforts, though, the final dress looks superb!!
Thanks Adri! Next time I’ll just say. Or say I say…
