Finished!

Finally. =')

It fits perfectly now, and has a nice little lace bust-piece~ I left the sleeves in their original length however.

Oh, and yes, Lamia got a new hair-do. x3

Almost...

I've been sewing Lamia's dress all day long - yet it's still not finished...! >.< However, it still looks great, even if it's not ready...

So, it looks like this...

 ...and here it is on my dear Lamia~

I am pretty proud of the double-skirt part, it just looks like as I imagined! And the sleeves as well~ Even though they are a bit long, I will cut them a bit tomorrow...

...and to be honest, there's a lot to do with this dress tomorrow: it's too big, for example. ='D I made it a bit bigger than Lamia on purpose, because there is no zipper sewn in the dress. I wanted to solve the problem with shirring, but the dress is still bigger than I expected... (That's why Lamia holds his arms like this - otherwise the dress would just slip down. x'D) Aaaaand we have a major problem up here...

Yyyyyyep. That decolletage is a bit... well... bold. =') I have totally no idea how did I manage to sew it like this... ^^" So I'll need to find a solution for that too tomorrow... Still a lot to do, a lot to do...

Work in progress

Hi there! 

I finally got over my "I-dunwannado-anything" phase that made me unable to work on new clothes for the past few days, and I started to sew Lamia's new clothes for his birthday. =) It's a bit late now however, and I can clearly see the "Finally...!" expression on his face. ^^" But here are the results of today's work:

It's halfway done, I will put some more lace on the top of the bodice. But I'm pretty proud of the shape, I've never done something like this before. =D

And the lower part turned out just as I've imagined! x3 I was experimenting with a new method of cutting pieces, and I'm so glad it worked as I wanted!

Aaaaand this piece is about to be sewed under the lace-part. I hope it will end up good - and Lamia will like it... (He is a bit mad at me because I didn't buy him anything on his birthday, and I dared to come home with a violin for Gloria... ^^" A few days later I bought him a little mirror as an apology, but it didn't really satisfy him... So I promised to sew him four new dresses - one as the original present, one as an apology for being late, one as an apology for Gloria's violin and one for the fun. x'D)

Socks, stockings and skirts. =) With lots and lots of lace~ Especially this skirt, which I bought from Alice's Collections - and it looks much more gorgeous in real life. x3
