With a close friends wedding coming up, I have taken the bold decision to make- well attempt to make myself a dress to wear (just for the record, I have never made a dress before!!!).
My reasoning for this: Firstly I have always wanted to learn to dress make, secondly I tend to find it difficult process to find a dress I like and that suits me, and finally because it would be nice to have dress that I know is a ‘one off’. However this may be a one off disaster....... Or a new found love......:) I will keep a record of my dress making process, as it might be of help to others - all positive comments will be welcomed as I may require further support, advice and a whole heap of encouragement!
Above is photo of the pattern I will be following- now just awaiting for fabric and other dress making essentials to be delivered :)
