I finally got to the point of actually tracing the bodice pattern.
I had a piece of blue cotton in my stash just large enough for the pieces that need to be blue if I use it for the lining as well as the mock-up. So now the mock-up pieces are cut out.
I sewed the pieces all together plus added pieces for the "vest" look.
After looking at these pictures I realize I should make sure the patterned fabric should match, one side to the other. I never had any lessons on how to exactly do it, so this will be a learning lesson. Maybe I will check with Youtube for a lesson on it!
In the meantime, I am also thankful I decided to keep this little "Journal". I need to go back and check how I did the "tail" on this bodice. When I made it on the Mourning Dress it didn't seem to come out quite the way it did when I made my First Bustle Dress.
BEN UPDATE
Earlier this month Ben had his braces removed so he could have an MRI done. Tomorrow is the day. They have a simulator that Ben has used to get used to the MRI machine before the real thing. I hope this helps him out with all the noise and what goes with an MRI.
