I really don't like handsewing, and yet today I did almost the entire skirt by hand. I made the decision to put a guard on the skirt after all. So now there's a 5" green velvet guard on the bottom, and a slightly shorter antique rose linen guard on the inside of the skirt to act as a hem/seam guard for the inside, because I cut the skirt about 4" long. I want it to pool a bit. :3 I've done as much as I can on the skirt until I make the bodice and know exactly how long the waist will be.

I did a muslin for the bodice yesterday, and altered the pattern a bit, but before I cut the silk I want to do one more mockup, this time with sleeves. Pictures tomorrow, maybe?
