Its finally finished! Needed to have a calico mock up ready for interim review tommorow. Thought i would be sustainable by using scraps of fabric and recycling old calico mock ups, rather than going out and buying more calico. Pretty pleased with the results. Obviously its not a 'subtle tulip shape' as i mentioned before, its quite exaggerated. Think it needs it though, its just a plain top and skirt otherwise. Might try and taper the bottom of the skirt in slightly, i want most of the volume at the top of the hips. The top isnt perfect, will need to develop the pattern a but. Not used to making t-shirts from non stretchy material! Have decide to fasten the back with a zip, so it can still be slightly fitted at the top. When i do the top properly, i will add a contrasting bias trim on the collar, and also fake contrasting cuffs/ turn ups on the sleeves. Also will need to line the skirt.
