Me-Made-March Day 1

6:33 PM 4 Comments A+ a-




1 day down! I was hoping to wear something pretty and springy but unfortunately, due to crazy Texas weather, it was around 40 degrees when I left for work this morning. However, perhaps it's appropriate to start with this dress because it's the first thing I ever made when I started sewing! It's Butterick 5247, made with a purple jersey from Hancock. The first project I made was with jersey and the second was a slippery satin. Starting with such difficult fabrics it's a wonder I kept at it!

Great job. I only alter clothes. I have never made anything from scratch, and I doubt I have the patience for it. I am impressed with everyone elses creations though. :)
