What was your inspiration?

Susan Khaljie's class was absolutely wonderful. Its amazing that i can learn so many professional techniques from my home! and its so affordable! I was inspired by this class, to state it simply. A year ago i did not know how to sew. Now i can finish a professional looking dress. I love it!!

What are you most proud of?

It took me two weeks to make this outfit, and i drafted my own pattern! So its not the same as what was made in the class but i used all the techniques that were taught. I kept at it and really improved my patience levels. I still did make some mistakes but i learnt plenty.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Its a very zen like experience to hand baste everything. Take your time to do it..Ive shared some more details in my blog : www.loveitseams.wordpress.com
