Finally finished another very old UFO. This one I started in 2006 or 2007. Yep. Very Old. It's the Folkwear Edwardian corset cover.

Oh that's so pretty and delicate!

Beautiful, and I am totally impressed with you knocking out UFOs! Very inspirational. :)

Thank you! The UFOs have been a mission since getting all my stuff out of storage. I can feel the burden of guilt lightening! :D
