I really need to finish my blue dress...but in the meantime... I have a baby shower to go to this weekend, so I needed to make a little dress to wear. I'm really challenging myself to get this dress done in a week. With the two kids and all the stuff we do, I really have to squeeze in the time to sew! My son loves to play with my sewing machine, so I have to distract him with something else. I thought this would be easy, but then I cut out the pattern...
I didn't realize how many pieces there would be! And I'm having some trouble with the neck yolk. The neck is a bit low and sort of comes over the very top of my shoulders and connects with the sleeves, but the yolk is really tight around my neck...so I'm working on the skirt until I can avoid the problem enough to figure it out. I find a lot of problems with patterns. A lot of times the sizing is off for me, or some of the pieces are wrong. I should really find a chat board about this so I can figure out what other people have done!
Now tonight I should be able to hand hem the blue dress and finally get it done!
