Floral Slip Dress

I made a new floral slip dress using a yard of leftover cotton fabric and a self-drafted pattern. The sewing process was fun, I did this dress for six hours in total during my free time in three days, which is not bad 😊

The dress was finished with straps and adjusters, knee length, and finished the neckline with facings.

The only problem was that the fabric needed to be more to make the whole dress and I decided to make the back bottom dress using leftover pieces sewn together. It worked, nobody noticed it because of the busy floral print. 

This dress is my entry to Magamsewalong #magamjammingjune challenge on Instagram. Thank you for hosting Sue , Suzy and Nic 💗 

Here is the look of my self-drafted pattern, I made this slip dress three times or more before. A good TNT pattern 😊

 

My fabric wasn't enough for the whole back dress, so I added leftover pieces sewn together for the back bottom dress.

Nobody noticed the joined line because of the busy floral print, except when close-up, especially in the right side of the dress.

I sewed the straps between the facing and the dress, then turned it out. I love the neat look of the front dress.

I sewed the rest according to the usual manner and the only extra work was to sew the adjusters to the straps.

The dress was done after I sewed the hemline, I used a blind hem method, which is easy and fast.

I'm glad I decided to use this leftover cotton fabric, the zipper and other notions were from my stash.

Also, I updated my YouTube channel about the making of this dress. Here is the link in case you are interested in watching cozy sewing vlog - floral slip dress or simply click the video below,
