. Well for my birthday, my mom sent me a gift card to JoAnn fabric (thanks mom!), I went there and the fabric I liked was on sale! So I got enough fabric for two dresses and have made one already!
I make a few changes to the pattern. I shortened the sleeves, didn't put any facing on the inside collar, and when it came to hemming, I just did a ziz zag stitch all along to raw edge, and then folded it up and did a straight stitch to hold it up. It was SOOOOOO much easier than folding it over twice and trying to get it to stay and not going crazy! I also made the tie a lot wider and made a smaller hem on it so I didn't go crazy turning it right side out! And I made the tie one long part and didn't attach it to the dress so I can switch it up with other belts later on if I want to. I'm pleased with the way it came out!
Very flattering. And I love the necklace!
