German Dress

So  in response to German Day at Gulf Wars this year, I decided to make myself a German dress.  Thanks to Mistress Rhiannon, who fitted the bodice to me, I have a german half done.  My first ever!  I have the bands sewn on the skirt and now the band is tacked down on the bodice (looks pretty good in my opinion).  Next I just need to attach the skirt to the bodice and the sleeves.  I hope to have this project done by wednesday or thursday so that I can finish packing and clean house before we leave on Sunday.  No last minutes sewing for me this year! (I hope)
