Slow Progress on New Look 6003 and B6582

So here is where I am so far. The progress is extremely slow because of all the "other sewing" I am doing. "Other sewing" meaning alterations on pants and costumes for children. I have a fashion show in May so if I don't leave this "other sewing" alone I am going to be stuck!. Anyway, The skirt needs a zipper and the the lining to the hem is a pinch too long. You can't see it in the front, that's why you only got a front side view (he he) Anyway, the top is pinned to "Lillie"(for those who don't know that's the name of my dressform. So I need to purchase a zipper and finish the top and then I will be on to project #2 which is the peplum top and the straight skirt,which is partially cut and sewn.

    1. Thanks Sheila, that trim took some time and some thought, but I got thru it! The pattern suggested braided trim, maybe I will try that next time.
