Description

I sewed this dress so that I would have something new to wear to the opera. It ended up being too big and I had to adjust it in the end, but I'm happy with how it turned out.

Materials

cotton blend

Hi brooke!! I'm so excited to see you, even if its only online! This dress looks amazing... I'm glad you are sewing outside of class still! I recognize the fabric too! Also- I'm so jealous that you are going to the opera! Hopefully see you soon.

sewing my wedding dress!

I really love that dress. I love the length, the neckline and the fabric, did you use a pattern? I've never been to the opera, and I keep hinting that I would love to go to a ballet, maybe someday!

This is so gorgeous! As everyone has said, that is an awesome fabric, and great for the style of the dress. And I love it when people take lots of pics of their creations so you can see all the details! Well done!

Beautiful fabric, and I love the look of the Danielle in a funkier print.
