LIST MANIA
Finishing the backdrapes was a big leap forward in completing the Elissa costume. I realized not too much remains, which always feels good! Here's the list:
*Line the tabs (one down, two to go)
*Sew tabs to skirt (one down, two to go)
*Add more sparkle to tabs
*Sew skirt/false bodice (which is one piece) to the skirt
*Sew hem
*Attach pleated hem
*Replace crappy gold with quality gold on the tassels
*Attach all tassels
*Attach gems over tassels
*Sew backdrapes to skirt
*Sew hooks and eyes to backdrapes and skirt
*Sew velcro to backdrapes and skirt
*Finish beaded belt + attach
*Make giant black netting underskirt (which is the bleeeeh job!)
