Well an update on my Lady Galadriel dress, I have finished adding the zippers and hemmed the skirts. I cannot believe how difficult it is to put in a zipper, this was my first time ever sewing in a zipper and I had to do it twice for both the white dress and the grey overdress.

The only things left to do are to finish the neck drape, clean up some of the seams and the inside collars which are driving me a bit nuts, even though I followed the instructions they feel bulky so I’m going to trim them back a bit. After all that is done, I am pretty sure I am going to have to take the dress in just a little bit but I won’t know until I try it on.

I am not the greatest seamstress in the world and I know it’s not perfect but I am proud of it and the journey to make the dress brought me much so much joy.
