Friday Fabulousness......pink dress


I made this dress for work using a denim cotton blend in this pale pink fabric.


I used this New Look 6934 pattern & it was easy to sew.......


The bodice was simple to put together & the instuctions were clearly written.


I added this sewing machine embroidery design on the front for a little colour & because I love to sew!


I have made this pattern twice so I think I'm done with this pattern for now.

Wishing you a weekend of fabulousness

Bleu Denim Dress



This is my denim dress that I have been working on this week! I am sewing Bleu fashion projects for the month of March & wanted to try sewing with denim.  This is my first time working with denim & it went great. I used  New Look pattern 6934 & it was easy!
 This pattern is great for new seamstresses!

This is the bodice & it was pretty straight forward to put together.

I also used my new embroidery machine (finally) & added flowers to the bodice!


I always thought inserting a vent would be difficult so I have always avoiding them, not now!


I used a denim needle & denim thread so the sewing of the bodice & the skirt was no problem.

I only had to pleat the front bodice because it fit a little large.  Next time I will cut the bodice down a size.
 I like this dark blue denim.

 I put in a white zipper for contrast to go with my blue & white design.


This is my Fashion Friday project for this week!


Have a great weekend everyone!
