At the beginning of the year I said I was going to blog more... well, it's now mid February and I'm just now posting my first garment of 2019. Life happened and I've been extremely busy with teaching my sewing classes which I will blog about that as well. Okay, so much for me being late with my first post of the year.
I made this beautiful dress using Vogue Pattern 7762 (which is out of print) for a dear friend who's also a client. She contacted me to make her a bridesmaid dress. The bride told the bridesmaids she wanted them to wear black, the dresses didn't have to be the same. I made this dress for my friend/client before in red in a shorter version. The beauty of this dress are the two-piece sleeves with slit shaped hem line and narrow hem. I'm going to make this for myself in red also.
