I was able to cut out the fabric yesterday and sewed all the front and side front pieces together along with the back and side back pieces. Yokes were basted to both front and back pieces with sides and shoulders still to be basted for fitting.
This is a real easy to sew dress and the fabric I am using is easy to sew as well. This is fabric I acquired from Vogue Fabrics last year. It has a look of fall to it; though I think we will get a few more cooler days between now and April.
I made a Magic Pencil skirt from the same fabric in a different colorway. I chose to line the skirt but did not line this dress fabric, hoping I made the right decision about this. I have another fabric piece I am considering using to make another dress from this pattern.
More later.
I love that fabric!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you! It is really easy to sew and feels good.
DeleteI don't think that's a fall only fabric at all! It will work just fine for early spring. I'm still going to wear the dress that I made from my fabric in the spring so I think you're okay! Can't wait to see this dress finished because I've picked fabric to make one, just haven't gotten there yet!
ReplyDeleteThanks Carolyn. This is a really easy pattern to sew.
DeleteYes, I think this fabric could be worn with autumn colours, or lighter colours for spring. It's nice to have transeasonal garments. I also look forward to seeing the finished dress as I too have this pattern. Lead on..
ReplyDeleteThank you. Hope to finish the dress soon.
DeleteWe are waiting to see more of you creation, keep it up.
