And attached the godets to the side of the middle front and middle back gores. Below are what the side gores look like.
Then I added the side gores. I didn't take a picture of the five sections (middle gore with godet attached to it and then the side gores attached together) which make up the front and the back halves of the skirt. Will have to do that and add it tomorrow. Previously posting I showed the middle front and middle back gores. Tomorrow I need to trim the fabric from behind the lace between the gores and godets. And hope to join the front and back sections together. If I'm lucky I'll get the pattern out and draw off the bodice on pattern fabric and see if I can get this skirt to fit the bodice from another pattern. If not I'll make the bodice that goes with this pattern.
