DIY Puff Sleeve Gingham Top With Ruffle Hem

Image
Happy Monday, friends. I made a new summer top using gingham fabric and a self-drafted pattern. The top is simple, featuring puff sleeves, a round neckline, and a ruffled hem. I decided to make it to fill a gap in my summer wardrobe. The fabric is cotton, which is perfect for wearing in our humid and hot summer. This picture was taken yesterday, and we went for a Sunday walk at the mall. I wore the top with my old and trusted denim pants.  I bought this gingham cotton fabric as a souvenir from our trip to Singapore last year and I'm happy I finally made a top with it. And I still have enough leftover to make another top. The pattern was self-drafted and I made two tops using the same pattern before.  The front bodice with darts and the back does not have a dart for comfort.  The sewing process was fast and enjoyable.

Green Floral Dress

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!
