So here it is! I am very pleased with this, much more Jessica Rabbit than Mr Spock this time! I didn’t, it’s true, have it ready on time for NYE. Firstly because when I put the flounce on it was more straight skirt with a ruffle at the end of it which wasn’t the look I was going for. Also, truth be told, I was going to stay in and finish it but my naughty friends at the wine bar kept sending me photos of cocktails, mostly Violet Ecstacy which was ‘named’ for me by the owner, so it seemed churlish not to go (I never pretended to be the kind of girl who can resist temptation!). What I did with the dress in the end was to take out some of the flounce at the top and put in an ease stitch at the hem which has given it more of a fishtail, and me much happier with it. And I don’t intend waiting until next NYE to wear it either.
