Dressing Up part 2

Well, boys at school, Millie at nursery, so out came the sewing machine. After much pinning (using 3 needles, 3 safety pins and a name badge - I need some pins), it was ready to go. And do you know, the basic bodge seems to have worked. I can get it over my head, the seems are straight and its not too tight - apart from the short sleeves... Will have to see if I can salage that one - there may be enought room to re-sew them. Still needs finishing though - the neckline needs sorting out properly, then neatly(ish) sewn, so does the hem. But more pressing is the arms...
