Sewing my luxurious ivory lace dress inspired me to create more of these elegant and festive garments. Luckily I already had one lace fabric in my stash literally for years, so I finally got to use it.
Hello everyone,
today I’ve decided to start a new little blog series where I'll share all of my current sewing projects, ideas and sewing plans. I'm also going to mention what I've been wearing lately!
Sewing lace requires a bit more attention than casual fabrics. Just one dress can have a couple of techniques used altogether, which makes a project extra special.
Most of the garments I sew require fittings and adjustments. I like those tasks, but sometimes it's also nice to sew something very simple and straightforward. This gathered dress was exactly this type of a project.
Lingerie is still not my most common make, but I do love sewing luxurious sets. The Mara bralette and Watson panties are my latest ones and even though I’m very happy with them, it’s not my favourite one so far.
You can never have too many vintage style summer dresses. That must be the reason why every new warm season I add at least one new design to my wardrobe!
I’m obsessed with classy wool dresses. I tend to avoid wrap designs though, because they create an unflattering gap that’s impossible to avoid by adjusting the pattern. My research showed that there’s one pattern that doesn’t have this problem and it’s a vintage one as well.
