the dress

so this is how the dress was made..

it started with a Amy Butler Pattern:

lotus-tunic and cami

 laying out the fabric with the pattern

 cutting

 and more cutting

 uff da! that was a whole lot of cutting

 

(total side note- jods, krissy- does this rug look familiar?) 

after all the cutting the sewing begins! 

a dress and a liner was sewn

dress-mom

liner- me 

sewing on my moms ancient singer...

my liner all finished

 i now give you a

dress

i love how it turned out- it is so much cuter than i had imagined

i love it on- super comfortable

the sewtropolis grand opening was a hit by the way- 

here is a pic of all us employee gals

 (minus one & owner nikol is in the turquoise dress) in our "red dresses" and turquoise tights (store colors) of course- i made flip flops to match

 what a fun time- 

a million thanks to my wonderful-talented momma for all your help- 

it would not have been done with out you- xoxo

are you inspired to make a dress yet?
