Well, that skirt ended up being more of a headache than I that thought!!! I had originally gone with a circle skirt pattern, turns out I read wrong over at Padawan's Guide and it was supposed to be half a circle, so it wasn't falling correctly. So I took the whole skirt apart and fixed it and the lining. I also made a collar a wee bit shorter in the back and added the interfacing, which really helped! I just added the snaps for the collar and I'll start in on the gloves soon. I added a blanket for padding on the dress form, so you guys can see how it will fall when I wear it! Hopefully I'll have a shot of me wearing the ensemble soon!

Thoughts and feedback are appreciated!

It looks very well-made. Do you have the under-bust seam in there?

Yes!

It was hard to get the shape right, but I think I finally got it! Is there a seam in the back of the skirt as well? I can't tell from the exhibit photos. If so, I can easily add that!

And I'm just about done! I took some quick photos for you guys. After I took them, I removed the seam in the back that I had added, as it didn't fall right in the back and looked a little tight on the sides, not to mention that it flared funny on the sides as you can see in the photos.

All I have left is to dye my white pants the correct color. Any suggestions there? I'm SO afraid of ruining them and making them too dark! My boots should be here by Friday at the earliest.

Any feedback would be appreciated!

For dying: start with a very small amount of dye. You can always dye darker, but removal is a pita.

Well, I got to debut my Padme this weekend, and I was VERY happy with the way she turned out. I'll need to dye the boots darker, as the ones I wanted never came in Sad

After I do, I'll be submitting! Hopefully next week or so! Here are a couple of photos!

I decided to hand embroider it. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be!
