progress report 02

I have to say that even with the setbacks I wrote about yesterday I feel that I'm pretty close to being on track. I know I still have a long way to go, but I'm feeling a lot more confident about where I'm at and where I need to be within the next week or so. Today brought about the french seaming of the 2 pieces with me only breaking out the seam ripper once and getting the pleats ironed in. I'm hoping that I can get the top-stitching of the pleats done tomorrow evening and the 'waistband' drafted, cut out and sewn into place. If I'm super lucky I'll be able to get the zipper in as well, if not Saturday it is. *fingers crossed*
