I’ve finally finished my first ever dress! I wanted it to be perfect so it took me quite a lot of time but the instructions were easy to follow.
I wore it for the first time last Saturday and was so proud. I ever spent the evening dancing and the dress is still in one piece! :-)

Your dress looks beautiful! I’m a beginner and I’ve chosen this to be my first dress. I will be happy if it turns out as nice as yours did. :-)

Thanks! It was actually pretty easy though I struggled a bit with the belt. I think if I was to do it again (and I probably will as I really like it!) I would do it without the belt and make one I can wear on top of the dress.
Good luck with your dress and I look forward to seeing how it turns out. I’m sure you’ll do a great job!

It looks really good on you! Dancing in selfmade dresses is best!

It looks lovely and it’s definitely a great fit on you! I just wish there was a photo which showed the fabric a little bit better – it looks like it has some almost hidden print or texture to it. Does it?

Yes it does. For some reason I cannot publish the fabric picture but here it is:

And thanks for the comment! It’s very encouraging!
