Happy New Year!
Here is an extremely bad picture (I forgot my camera somewhere) of my Christmas Gift : 3m20 of thick red Dior double-face wool I found at my local Myrtille in Vannes. The Vogue 9134 pattern is on the way from Lanetz Living, I have the fusible, the lining is from stash, I have washed the fabric and will steam it soon. Strangely enough, judging from previous experience with Dior fabric, it won't change much if I do or don't as this stuff seams to have been pre-treated, it hasn't moved a millimeter. The exceptionally rich color changes with different lighting and it can't be photographed, it's sometimes bright red, sometimes orange, one wonders if the dyes they use are available to us commoners.

I will follow Pattern Scissors Cloth's RTW Sew-Along to the letter and plan on top of the line finishing touches like bound buttonholes and, heresy on my part, am even thinking about hand sewn-top stitching.
