Casual Dress

Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Pattern Drafting from Ready-to-Wear »

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Clothing

For: Women

Style: Casual


Materials

Knit

What was your inspiration?

I love the pink dress, but it's shorter than I usually wear and the knit is getting picked. I used a cotton knit to duplicate the dress, but shorter. Picture is not great, but my satisfaction is!

What are you most proud of?

I can wear the new dress and feel proud of making it.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

The class is terrific as is the instructor...she gave me great instructions for the difficult tucks at the top of the dress---and, it worked!

Awesome. The tucks make the dress and must have been a challenge to copy.

Great job! I still have to watch the rest of the video and start copying a pattern. I'm going through another Craftsy class first. So many ideas, so little time. Love Craftsy!
