Hi there, today's post is about a new dress I sewed last month. It's a midi-style dress with puff sleeves and a front tie. I made this dress to wear to a special dinner. For the pattern: I lengthened my selfdrafted v-neck dress into midi length. And for the fabric, I used a linen blend in green color. I bought the fabric in Bangkok during my summer holiday in August. The dress pattern had 6 pieces, front and back darts and I fused the facings with fusible interfacing. As usual, the sewing process was relaxing and it finished faster than I planned. The picture below shows the process of sewing the zipper, I pinned it before sewing it using the zipper foot. To make the puff sleeves, I gathered the sleeves before pinning and sewing them to the armhole.  After attaching the sleeves, I sewed the sleeve allowance 1 cm and the hem allowance 1.5 cm. And then, I pinned the neckline before top-stitching it. I decided

Green Floral Dress

By -
Hello, I made a simple dress to wear daily. I used floral green rayon fabric leftover from my previous dress. 
The pattern was self-drafted based on my basic blocks.
Dress details: a very loose dress, short sleeves, v-neckline with pleat, no zipper but I sewed back slit opening finished with button and I made a waist tie from the same fabric.

The process was fast, I did this dress in five hours. The neckline was finished with neck facing and top-stitched by hand. 
I added pleat in the center front, folded the fabric and sewed it down until my waistline.
I sewed belt loops and waist tie (belt) from the same fabric, I attached the belt loops 2 cm above my waistline.
I sewed the sleeve hems and hemline with blind hem using the sewing machine. And the rest of the process was the same as the usual manner. So I don't need to explain more 😊

The tote bag was me-made too, I used leftover home decor fabric and scraps fabrics for the patchwork 😊

That's it for today, stay safe and well ❤
Happy sewing!
