Nothing fancy, just my very first attempt at sewing up a pattern. I forgot to put on the brown satin sash before taking the photos, but no doubt you'll be seeing this dress again. Una likes it!
As Fanny Price would say: 'Oh, this is beautiful indeed!' I wish I could sew something like that! Thank you for posting... I have been very interested to see it since you started talking about it.
it is sooo beautiful, and it looks pretty simple to make too...my daughter would LOVE one of those! what pattern did you use, if you don't mind me asking?
Cathy, it IS easy! It is the Regency Girl's Dress from Sense & Sensibility Patterns. On my right-hand sidebar below my archive you will find the link under "Crafty-ness"
I LOVE IT!! So beautiful! Your first attempt? Are you serious?? It looks fantastic! Good job on the pleats. I've only done a couple...they were pretty difficult, I thought. Thanks for sharing the pic. Makes me want to go dig up my sewing machine.
Abby and I are sitting here admiring - and with more than a little envy! Una and dress are beautiful. Abby is hoping to start hers this summer - I am not going to be able to help much. I have a feeling she will be emailing you....
Dear Nadja, Oh it is so beautiful I am sure Una will wear it often. Have you found it practical though for everyday wear? I am looking for ideas for Confirmation Dresses for our girls for July. Hwever they are a bit well... busty I am never sure this is a good look for them. Any opinions? God Bless Gae
