motorharpI got the pinstriped dress cut out yesterday evening despite being fantastically tired. The world seemed to be populated by deceptively sane people who drained my brain's glucose to dangerously low levels.
I decided to use my muslin for underlining, as the fabric is a little bit more lightweight than I had first thought. Then I'll line the skirt with either whatever I have in my stash or whatever I find on my fabric store run.
Also, I was inspired to start croquising a bathing suit from fabric that's been in my stash for probably close to 2 decades. I hope it still has all its elastic properties! I was doubly inspired after seeing this suit in To Catch A Thief.

The fabric is blue with white polka dots, and has a nice piqué-like texture.
