Sewing: Butterfly dress

Make It

This project was made from an independent Craftsy designer's pattern:
Butterfly Dress Pattern --- version #2. »

Instructions

This is my practice run at the butterfly dress. To keep things simple and not too overwhelming, I chose not to have any pockets or contrasting frills.
It would be easier to do the hem of the skirt before sewing the skirt to the body.

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Clothing

For: Girls

Style: Romantic, Classic, Cute


Materials

Cotton fabric, cotton thread, 6mm elastic, ready made bias edging.

What was your inspiration?

The inspiration to undertake this project came from my baby girl!

What are you most proud of?

The fact that I actually completed the dress. :) I am really happy with how the neck line turned out, and the fact that I managed to some-what neatly sew on the bias tape.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

To beginner sewers ~ Don't be overwhelmed by it all.. Take it slow, step by step.
