Velvet Ribbon

Hello.. I am making a dress for April - Make A Garment A Month  (magam)  with the theme "Blooming Flowers". After thinking and looking for the right fabric and pattern to work with, I chose this beautiful watercolour floral chiffon that I won from Ariation's  giveaway. As the chiffon is transparent, I will lining the dress bodice with jersey net fabric in white color and I will make half slip to cover my lower body. For the pattern, I am using BurdaStyle Smocked Maxi Dress 04/2013 size 34. I have to grade down the pattern because the minimum size from the original pattern is 36. I decided to change the loops and buttons to three little bows or just one bow at the center front. I will see... Also, I will reduce the dress length from maxi to tea length.  image source Sewing Process: I cut all the fabric pieces, fashion fabric and lining. Also cut the belt and bias tape for the neckline and armholes. I placed the lining fabric right ...

Hello everyone, Sorry for my late post! Here is my June  MAGAM outfit based on Burdastyle patterns.. T-shirt details, Simple style t-shirt, nothing fancy but perfect for everyday wear.   Pattern and modification: For the pattern, I used Burda t-shirt pattern 06/2008 - 113 size 34. You can check out my first version here.   As you all see that my first version was fine but I am not so happy with how the neckline turned out, so I decided to raise the front neckline 2 cm and I used smaller neckband 1 cm.   Materials: 1.5 yards of knit cotton in white color, stay tape for the shoulder lines, and white color thread.   For the sewing process, you all can see here in  my first version . But I omitted the contrast stitching and made the neckband smaller. And  I think that the neckband turned out well :-) Here are the pictures of the t-shirt - front and back views,     Skirt details, Very cute and girl...
