It's less than a week away!
The good news is, both Melia and I both have underpinnings completely done (save for the odd button/hook), and both of our skirt ensembles are within a hairs breadth of being completed. (leaving bodices & hats left to do...)
Were I to do it again, I would make the gathers much less full....but I was not about to re-do them after the 6th time messing around with the hem!
I used the same skirt pattern, TV202 for the skirt. Which would have been ok, except the back panel was about 6" or so too wide for my fabric, and I made the unfortunate decision to not piece the back. I really ought to have pieced the back....lesson learned - don't make big decisions late at night after a long day of sewing!
