I intend to make the short sleeved version in a black/deep blue viscose that I just couldn't not buy, it was a case of me holding it and not wanting to let it go until I realised there was no option but to buy enough for a dress!
I'm not sure, but I think it's a designer remnant, I saw a documentary about Victor Borgen (don't ask me why...) and his daughter wore a pretty dress in exactily the same material. Funny!
I hope it won't be too much (I love simplicity, at least on me).
The second pattern is going to become the base

I'm going to use the long puffy sleeve and the tunic body, but I'll shorten it to just below hip-level to avoid the coat-look (don't like that on me! Unless it IS a coat of course!). I may make it a wrap-top, but I like the agraff-closure on the envelope, so I'm not quite sure...
I'm glad it's weekend already tomorrow, yey!
Oh, and I have NO idea why all yellow in the pictures turns out blue in this entry... never happened before!

Hey IchiGoGirl,
ReplyDeleteI am so excited to see you creations! They are always so inspiring!!! Good luck sewing up the vintage patterns!
Best
Alden
Hi Alden! I'm so glad you found me, your vintage dress (it's gorgeous!) was one of the things that inspired me to finally try vintage sewing. I hope I will find enough time to produce, hehe, I'm copying the pattern for the cardigan right now(the original is so fragile it shatters when I touch it...).
