Description

used some fabric lying around and saw what i could come up with.

not confident with zips yet, as it was quite fitted and not stretchy i made the straps detatch so i could get into it!! made a fitted torso dress, sewed up the sides, then made a fold over top, made some cap sleves, handstitched cap pull ins on shoulders, understitched and ironed some pink ribbon to finish edges, hand-sewed button holes, added clear buttons, ironed up!

Materials

clear buttons x 2 pink silk ribbon 1 metre metre & half fabric i think sewing machine, old practice fabric, pins, measuring tape and cotton

    This is a great dress, it was a great idea to make the straps detach and avoid the zip.
