Big Beautiful Pockets!

The shirtwaist dress, Advance 8436, is coming along slowly but surely.

This evening I was able to finish sewing the skirt sections together.

The pockets on this dress have to be one of my favourite details. The top of the pockets are placed so that they drape open. They are generous in size. They are perfectly big beautiful pockets!  See...


Well, even though I can't wait to finish this dress it have to wait until tomorrow. It's time to call it a night.  

Happy Sewing!
