sleeved a-line

I am still feeling like crud but I got this dress finished.  I can sit at a sewing machine especially with much tea and rests.

I played with the a-line dress pattern I have been making and added sleeves.  The first muslin I made pulled badly over my chest.  But this one did not.  I added three quarter length sleeves and modified the bodice and arm holes to take the sleeves.

I would have gotten a picture of me in it but my official picture taker has been under the weather.  I just know I like it.  I will have to make myself more.  I have a few dresses that I think we end up in this shape.  It is exciting.
