Picking up where I left it - 23 years later

I think that I cut out, and started on this dress in 2002. But it might be as early as 1999 or 2000.
It is sewn together, it is not hemmed, nor has it got lacing holes or button holes. 
I have taken it out from my wool cupboard several times the last two decades, but sometimes I was too large for it, or too small. Now it fits, except that the sleeves, which are elbow length, are a little bit narrow. Luckily I have a scrap large enough to make small gores in the sleeves, to make them wider.

Right now I am finally hemming the bottom of the dress, while watching "The Antiques Roadshow"

I might wear it to Gotvik's Yule party on the 7th of December. If it's finished. And if I find an underdress somewhere among my stuff.
