So as mentioned previously I wanted to make a proper cancan gown. The plans were great, the execution not so much. I used decent fabric, but I couldn't get the bodice tight enough, so wrinkles. I never had time to finish the ruffles on the petticoat, and there are a lot of loose threads everywhere, since I just tried to zick-zack the edges of the fabric and cut off most, but definitely not all of them. There are windmills on the skirt, but they look quite crooked.

I still have the petticoat though, and it's a great base for fantasy/gypsy-inspired costumes.
