noun- a rough or unfinished drawing or painting, often made to assist in making a more finished picture: a charcoal sketch.
I'm so excited!  Some of the dresses I have been planning in the vintage
 style are almost finished!  I neglected to take pictures of them when I
 last visited my grandmother's house for a fitting so instead I can 
share the sketches I made of my wardrobe-to-be:
| 
 | 
| Top- Coral sheath dress with white yoke.  Bottom- Shirt waist dress- tan and beige pinstripe with cream colored cuffs and collar. 
 | 
 | 
 | 
|  | 
| Top- Blue day dress.  Bottom- sun dress, white polka dots (vintage 1960s) with black lapel & waistband detail (added). | 
|  | 
| Top- light blue and white pinstripe skirt. Middle- light pink skirt (add bow sash?).   Bottom- bright purple high waist skirt with bow. | 
|  | 
| Top left- as yet colorless kick pleat dress.  Top right- red sailor dress.  Bottom left- navy and white wide striped nautical skirt.  Bottom right- tritone dress, but maybe a solid color instead. | 
 So yeah, things are moving along.  The first two dresses and the polka dot dress are almost finished
 then the next projects are the blue day dress (altho I need to figure out if the fabric I want to use is going to work, there might not be enough) and the blue/white pinstripe skirt.  The other ones I still need to find fabric/patterns for.  But I'm having lots of fun designing my new 50's/60's inspired closet.  Let me know if you want to know the pattern numbers :)
