No new pictures for now. I made the final fitting tweaks to the dress this afternoon. The Italian wool fabric has some Lycra and the double knit also has some stretch. Because of this I had to take additional deeper seams than I did for the lining fabric which had no stretch.
I am pleased with the fit now. Next steps are stitching lining to dress, inserting sleeves and a small shoulder pad as I think I need it as there is some droop to the back shoulder area and a shoulder pad helped.
I don't think I will finish this dress tonight so it will be my first completed project for the new year.
Wishing everyone
