We had a formal work function for Doug last night, Mum made the dress for me, but no faffing around making patterns bigger, just a stock standard McCalls pattern, no dramas. No panicking about fat bits hanging out, no stress. I felt great.

I actually would have liked to go a little sexier but it was a work thing and Doug's the CFO so I had to act all middle aged and responsible.

Lovely pic! I sew a lot of my own clothes, and can't wait for the day when I'll be able to use a standard pattern without making all sorts of changes to it!
