Dress in a Day photos
On Saturday we had our 'Dress in a day' workshop. As always I am seriously impressed with the dresses everyone makes at the workshop, they are always so different. The dress is such a flattering style, easy to make up and you get to take home the pattern which is made to your measurements! I was very inspired after the workshop that I decided to start making a linen top which has been on my 'to-do' pile for some time. Here are some of the dresses from the workshop modelled by their smiley creators!
Lisa's lovely check fabric which matched up on the side seams perfectly + some bias binding + two patch pockets = fab dress
Joanne's 'Liquorice Allsorts' dress (very Sheffield!), a short and very sweet version!
Sara's black and white chic number, which I think is very Mary Quant! Sara bought 2m of the check fabric fabric in the John Lewis sale, before realising we need 2.5 metres to make the dress, so we added a strip of black fabric at the bottom of the dress to extend the length and made some black bias binding for the neckline in the same plain fabric.
Our next 'Dress in a Day' workshop is on Saturday 27th October!
