Made some progress on Romana this past week.
I started out with a pdf pattern, drew out the pieces on newsprint and cut them out of some $1 a yard fabric I’ve had hanging around.

Took it part and used it to cut out my black fabric (leftover from Lady Blackhawk!). I got the top pieces put together with their lining and partially top-stitch tonight.

I need to shorten the sleeve openings a little and top stitch them tomorrow, and get the skirt pieces cut.
Also got my hat this past week, need to make a new band for it. The shirt is just a stand in til I find what I want to use.
