It's been awhile since I've sewn something for myself, I decided on an easy Vogue pattern as a warm-up piece:
V8764
I picked up the fabric from JoAnn's, a beautiful dark blue suede with a wonderful light blue silk butterfly fabric for the lining:
Love
I was so excited that I quickly cut out the fabric and began sewing:
Collar work
I was so into sewing I didn't bother to take note of the instructions, which caused me to make a design modification. Note the design drawing:
Now notice my design:
Yep I forgot the 'V' in the collar
However, I didn't forget the other details, check them out:
Inside lining
A peak at the top stitching
Hemming it up!
Of course no dress is complete with out accessories:
Earring and necklace set from Cato's
Bring it all back together.....
My goal is to have a new post the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of every month. Wether it be a 'me made' or a 'oh look what I found', I hope you will join me on my new journey.
Until then....one stitch at a time!
