I am thoroughly AMAZED that there were no major disasters making this! I will say one thing regarding fit: the waistline is a true 50's wasp waist. This is a 32B-26 1/2 W. My waist is 27" and there is NO ease whatsover.
Having said that, with all of the ruching, the waist NEEDS to be pulled taught otherwise it would look like a sack of gathering and the curves would be completely lost. Just keep that in mind if you ever decide to make this.
I will get more pictures from the cruise and promise to post them so that everybody can see the final, finished look!
Thank you all for following me on this project!

Thank you very much! I finished the stole last night and promise to post pictures from the cruise!
It was such a pleasure making this gown. Apart from two self-induced gaffs, which were easily corrected, it went sooo smoothly!
