T-minus six days and counting...

So, every time we go on a vacation, I have this brainy idea that I need a new outfit. And I must make said outfit. I usually start a week before our vacation starts, (as in pack up the car and drive away), but this time, I was smart. I started waaaaay in advance, so I'm not furiously working up until the last minute. It's really paid off....because LOOK! O's dress! Some handsewing is the only thing left!

And my jacket is progressing nicely...just have the sleeves to set in, and the belt to put on...

I'm so happy with my progress. I'm working a bit slower than I usually do when I'm in a time crunch, but I'm taking less time in reality, because I'm making less mistakes. I've only had to rip out one seam...which is really good, because it's the re-doing that takes so long, I find...
