Absolutely Ludicrous!
I leave Thursday for a wedding in New Orleans, and there are still parts of my dress pattern lying on the kitchen table! I'd say I'm approximately 1/4 of the way done (perhaps more, if I'm lucky, though I doubt it!).
Will I make it before the Wednesday night deadline? Will I be finishing hems on the way to the chapel? Or will it end up in a pile of fury and disappointment, and I'll end up wearing the black silk dress my friend made (that I still haven't finished the hem on?)?

"A pile of fury and disappointment" -- that's a great description of my usual state.

Good luck! I'm usually finishing stuff off at the last minute. I finished my corset about half an hour before we left for gradball. I was still sewing my halloween costume a couple of years ago as guests were arriving for my party.
So, the moral is: don't be like Lara.

Wendy, I'm glad to have such delightful company in the pile!
Thanks, Lara! I think I'm a lot farther along than I feel (which will happen when I've skipped steps that I couldn't accomplish; ie, moving on to sewing skirt pieces together because I didn't have my iron/board).
Hopefully I'll be able to get it done tonight! Then make any necessary adjustments tomorrow.

when you lack time and you're reeeeeally on the way to the church....... fabric glue will rescue you. ;)

What a gorgeous dress, I'm sure yo will finish it on time (at least you have a back-up).

Obviously I meant to write YOU not YO, even though I am hip enough to use the word YO, I am!
