Isn't this dress gorgeous? It's from a brand called Ports 1961 and I want to make one like it for next autumn. I'm thinking thin wool, but then I'm almost always thinking thin wool. I have a lovely raspberry red wool crepe that could be used.

A sleeve pattern

Not having access to internet makes you more productive. Maja fell asleep early and my computer is in the bedroom so I just couldn't waste more time on the internet. So I sat down with Desperately Seeking Susan on DVD, PoF, Tudor Tailor and some pattern paper and made a pattern for the sleeves for my pink gown. Unfortunately Maja then woke from tummy ache so I couldn't continue and now we're all going to bed. But I did make the pattern.

I hope she doesn't get sick again, because I have work that must be done tomorrow.
