I finished the striped dress yesterday, but the weather is rainy and gloomy, so no pictures quite yet. I also sewed down the facings on the sleeves and the neck. I pinned up the hem to let it sit overnight and to think about it, but I like it as is.
To refresh your memory, here is the fabric I will use. If you look at yesterday's post, you can see all of it. These are to show some detail.
Choice 1- Blue dress
It has a one piece front, to minimize matching the print, and a few darts for fit.
Option 2- Grey dress with belt
It also has a one piece front, and no darts, so the print will be intact. However, it might look very sack-like.
Choice 3- Pink dress, but without the sleeves
It would be semi-fitted with that one long, diagonal dart. The stomach looks kind of poofy, even in the sketch.
Hi Molly - I'm so sorry - I won the dress giveaway but did not claim my prize. I sprained my neck and then broke my wrist, so I am behind on my blogs. Please accept my apologies.
ReplyDeleteNo big deal- hope you feel better!
ReplyDeleteI voted for the blue one. I can't wait to see what you'll be picking. I am sure it will be lovely either way!
ReplyDeleteI voted for the blue one too - look forward to seeing that crazy fabric done up in a dress!
