Following on from last week's
sewing post, is the dress I made for Sarah. I called this dress 'Judy'. (Judy
from work helped me pick the fabric and ric rac)
Please Note: This is Sarah's image that I copied from her instagram account. PS I have major hair envy of her gorgeous red hair!
It was an odd mixture of
daunting, and exciting, sewing a dress for someone whom you have never met. It
was not so much the sewing bit, but picking everything for Sarah from the
pattern to the fabric. Having total control over what I was making her, was
odd. I did lots of stalking on her blog and Instagram account.
I selected a vintage pattern,
I am guessing from the 70s. It seemed basic when I ordered the pattern off
Ebay, however inside once I opened the pattern I realised there were no
instructions in English.
I fumbled through, but in the
end I am happy with how it turned out. So much so I made myself a matching
dress in pink floral, to wear while we were in Bali .
