Sheer 30's Dress
So I found this vintage pattern website awhile ago,
and bought a few patterns.
This one was my fav, the only prob is that it was 2 sizes too big.
So I put off making it for a long time.
Re-sizing patterns is the worst.
Real time consuming.
But when I found the perfect fabric,
(black floral silk, and teal poly blend)
I decided to start on the pattern.
I love the contrast of sheer black and teal.
I altered the pattern, and made a little teal back cut out.
Love it.

ReplyDelete"Awesome to the max!" (-your husband) You should go on that show with Heidi Klum--Project Runway! I'm pretty sure you'd kill the competition.
