I admit that I still haven't done those bound buttonholes.
I've put that down and am working on something with a deadline of Feb. 20. There is an awards banquet that night. It's a black tie optional affair.
So I'm going to make a formal gown out of Vogue 2607. I cut out and made the jacket out of muslin today. Evenings this week I'll need to get to work making that out of the real (sparkly-ish brocade). Then I'll work on the skirt.
After I finish that, I'll get back to those bound buttonholes. I promise.
