[20171119] Thursday night - six hours. Then several more on Friday morning when I realized that the bodice didn't fit right and had to make adjustments (taking in shoulders, adding dart seam at top back and on front, ripping out the front drapes and re-doing them). Finished up on Saturday afternoon. Thursday, I had a wild notion that I'd be able to make two dresses, but there was no way.
So, around 11 hours to make a teal/shot magenta silk 1910s style dress with sequined net and black cotton lining. All from stash.
