Trucking along...

Last night I sewed on the trim for the back lacing & found out I sewed it on way too low.  Of course this happened after I sewed on the lining.  I may just remove the trim & not have lacing (not a big loss).  The lacing would only be decorative since I made this coat to fit very snug.  I also hand fixed the pockets & sewed on button details on them.  Here's what I still need to do (I need to have this done by 10/12/13).

Hem the bottom of coat
Sew on functional front buttons & closure
Determine length of sleeves & cut them
Make pleats for sleeve cuffs
Cut lining for sleeves
Sew on sleeves once cuffs & lining are sewn in
Fit bodice/cut outside & lining fabric
Sew together & sew in zipper
Buy purple flower(s) for mini hat (already have)
Determine accessories, hosiery & shoes

So much to do, so little time!
