I found this amazing, super-soft fabric at Intown Quilters down the street and made my new favorite dress. It's super-comfy and fits perfectly, and I actually took the time to do little box pleats so I could make full use of the stripes. I've never done box pleats before but they came out pretty well for me eyeballing them and never measuring anything. It sits very nicely and doesn't get me weird looks on Marta. Also a close-up shot of the fabric and the top of the dress:
This dress is just adorable! I love the fabric! The texture of it looks gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThank you, and I love swiss dots! They're a great soft texture.
ReplyDeleteSuch a soft and pretty look, I love all the texture to the fabric! Great work keeping the whole look elegantly understated!

ReplyDeleteThank you guys, that means a lot coming from both of you!
ReplyDeletethis is amazing! all of your sewing has really inspired me lately too :) but the fabric is perfect. it's soft and girly but not overly-princessy!
