Sewing has been almost non-existent for most of the month. I'm slowly getting back into my sewing room and finished this dress I started earlier this month.
I love the floral print and the colors of this double knit fabric.

For the sleeves I split the sleeve, added fold over elastic and tacked back together about every 5". It gives just a little skin showing when you move.

I have a wedding dress I have to hem and I thought that finishing this dress would help my sewing mojo.
Until next time...................

ReplyDeleteI do love what you did with the sleeves; I think I will try this in the future.
It was a Fabric Mart Fabrics purchase. It's a poly/lycra double knit. Thanks so much for the kind comment and I hope to see your sleeve make.
