Success, at last!

I was blue last night because my dog ate my red shoes, so to soothe my pain I stayed up way past my bedtime and threw together a toile which - wait for it - actually worked. This is unlike me, as you can probably tell from my previous posts! It's a simple vintage pattern for a 50s shift with lovely pleats at the waist and a notch in the boatneck collar. I'll make a couple of changes in the real thing with the vintage fabric, but I reckon I can even wear the toile once I hem and zip it!

I have plans to sew like a demon this weekend, so pictures soon. Not of me sewing like a demon. Of the frock(s).
