I finished my Ruby Slip when I had a few spare minutes the other day.
It was not easy to photograph though - that fabric does not like a flash, thats for sure!
And as for going out for some daylight - it's been pretty dull around here and blowing a gale too, so these are the best I could do!
My mannequin is probably due for retirement soon - it leans to one side every now and again as if to prove just how worn out and over-worked it is!!
So overall, it was a lovely pattern to work with, and if I was to make another (and there's a good chance I will!). Then I would sew the lace trim onto the end and stitch the seam towards the skirt, rather than doing a rolled hem, as I ended up adding the lace trim anyway, so I could have skipped the hemming of this badly behaved fabric!
Simply beautiful. Nice job!
