Description

This is my first project!! I am so happy with the result!
I didn’t take any classes, just learned with the instructions of this pattern, websites and the manual of my machine

  • Of all websites that I looked, Burda Style is the best one **

The dress is more adjusted to the body, not a real 60’s , I know…

    Thank you all!!! Yes, it’s really my very first project!!! First time that I use a sewing machine!! I always wanted to learn to sew and build garments, I don’t know why I postponed it… But few weeks ago my bf gave me this machine…And now i want to sew everything,,,:)

    Well, the dress does have a lot of imperfections, especially in the finishing inside..But, yes, the overall looks good, i am proud of it… It’s good to count with this community to learn and exchange ideas! I hope to learn more with you all!
