Congratulations, Tripletap! Just keep going....

[Tripletap]

Thank you so much for every one's help, and encouragement, I have never been very good at "finishing" projects.
Now I just hope Joann's has a sale soon.

[Lady Rebecca]

There's a 50% off sale on home dec fabric, and I just received a 40% off fabric coupon. I think you're good to go!

[Tripletap]

Thank you, sounds like a trip is in order.

Tripletap! I'm late to the party with my kudos, but that looks just great. I love the color, collar, and cuffs. As a fellow beginner I am inspired . . . keep it up!

[DragonWing]

   I too want to congratulate you on your first project. It looks great. Well done.

Well, here 'tis: my first adult costume! For ready reference, here's the initial sketch from the in-progress thread: http://www.renaissancefestival.com/forums/index.php?topic=3590.975

The final gown is a pastiche of Italian Renaissance (bodice), medieval (undergown), and Regency (skirt). So it turned out to be a really fun research project . . . though the most important thing is that my sister, the model, felt very pretty in it on faire day. :-)

Absolutely lovely.

oohhhhh prettyyyy
I like it.
Lets get a close up on that trim

[DragonWing]

That is very nice. Very story book looking. Well done.

[Lady Caroline]

Oh that is VERY pretty!  I love it, and can imagine it in all sorts of pretty pastel colours.....

[Kate XXXXXX]

That's very sweet.  Well done.

[Rani Zemirah]

Beautiful!  Both she, and the dress, are exquisite... 

[Rosamundi]

Thank you all! Sister and I are both glowing with appreciation for your kind words. Here, for Aryun, is a detail of the trim. Wish I could hook you up with a source, but it was a remnant from a local fabric store and I have no idea of its pedigree:

"Auryn," even. My apologies!
