Last night I finished up my facings, made my buttonholes and sewed on my buttons. It’s just about wearable now, but I still want to add more trim if I have time.
The buttons are vintage or antique ones I picked up at The Vintage Marketplace, a shabby chic/vintage flea market that happens a few times a year where I have a booth. Luckily there are a lot of buttons, because I still need to make two more buttonholes and buttons!
Next up: hem the skirt and add trim. I most likely will not be posting more pictures of this until after the event, but you won’t have to wait long as it’s less than a week away!
