My journey through sewing: Innocent World JSK Progress Pics (almost done!)

Today I nearly finished this project. I'm about 90% done. It has given me much grief during the sewing process, I had to walk away today & start something else. However, I only need to tighten at least 1 button hole (that holds the shoulder straps on), make & sew on the bows, fix the bodice trim because I accidentally pulled it out (grr!) & do some finishing on the waist seam (not all the fabric got sew in). So it's a bunch of hand sewing. I'm fairly happy with it. The waist & skirt are a little longer than I hoped. But it's too late to change that. I think the longer skirt makes it look a little more classic anyway.

I also started working on the blouse that I will wear underneath it. I'm so happy that when I did my mock up, I only had to trim a little off the shoulders. The rest fit perfectly! Before I used to have to do so much work to make it fit. I'm so elated! So I was able to cut & sew the body. I still need to sew on buttons the collar & sleeves. I'm not putting a ruffle on the bottom because I think this will worn mostly with JSK's & tucked into skirts. It seems if I wear a Loli blouse untucked, it adds unwelcome bulk. So the bottom will be plain. I also still need to pick put the buttons to use.

On to the photos!
