I have been waiting to share this project with you for some time now. I am super proud of it because I am just a beginner in sewing. And this dress turned out just great.
It is currently my favorite dress and if I could, I would wear it everyday.
I bought this vintage shirt. It is 4 sizes too big for me but I could see that it could become a fantastic dress. So, I took it to my friends at Action House and asked the Naehkoenigin for help. They gave me some tips about how to execute it. They were a wonderful resource.
Like I said, a few months ago I love shirt-dresses and I am so excited to have one in this lovely floral pattern.
I took the sleeves off, took the sides in and added the sleeves to the bottom for some extra length.
Have you been sewing anything these days? I am really loving getting back into it!
Thanks for reading lovelies,
Anna
I have also shortened a few pieces for the shop which turned out fantastically! Hurray for sewing.
