Description

A version of the, free pattern ‘Coffee Date Dress’ and my first ever attempt at making any garment, which would explain why I ran out of time before I could figure out how to get the ruffle to go right but the corsage made it seem ok when the cardigan was sitting right.

Material Notes

Unbleached Calico dyed with Dylon(R) powder pink, some velvet ribbon and a spare square of floral cotton I had lying around.

    I think you’ve done a great job, I applaud your courage at making a first item for wearing out to an event :) I really like the second layer at the bottom, it makes the whole item really cute
