Seeing them made me appreciate the modifications you made even more.<br /><br />Where did your wonderfully coordinating bias binding end up? Between the facing and the lining on the jacket? At the armholes of the dress? It's hard to tell from the photos, and I'm dying of curiosity!:-)<br /><br />This is a great look on you, and I enjoyed reading about your sewing adventures with V1127.<br /><br />KathrynKathryn, aka fzxdochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16765109817196426864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-1907586661760002892009-10-27T16:46:13.398-04:002009-10-27T16:46:13.398-04:00Wonderful outfit!Wonderful outfit!Vicki Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06929340703066037054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-58598801655041877872009-10-27T16:18:31.565-04:002009-10-27T16:18:31.565-04:00That is really, really lovely Carolyn!
