When your 9 year old loves llamas what else to do but make a llama dress.

Fabric: @katkalindi cotton poplin from @spotlightstores

Pattern: Modified Simplicity 1211 into a mock wrap crossover bodice with a waist tie and skirt is just two widths of the fabric gathered.

Luxury touches: Lined bodice in bemberg rayon (silky and cool in hot weather) and added side seam pockets.

Next up, while I'm waiting for the hem to drop in my dress from the last post, I'm starting this using a @spotlightstores fabric that's been in my stash for YEARS. It's a polyester chiffon I think it's got a very tiny suble crinkle texture and very sheer and lightweight. I'm underlining using a flesh coloured lining from @theremnantwarehouse and using a self drafted pattern/design that I'm hoping works out.

Key to working with a challenging fabric is lots of hand basting, a new superfine needle (60/8) and patience, lots and lots of patience.

I am really loving how this dress is turning out. The fabric is a digital print viscose cotton flax from @spotlightstores that has the most amazing hand and drape. (Currently 30% off, I'll link to it in my stories). The pattern my own combo, using my own boat neck bodice, sleeves from @designerstitch and full length slightly fuller than a quarter circle skirt. Side seam zipper.

It is a maxi dress for the convention in two weeks.

I am very tempted to go back and get some more of this fabric, it comes in a range of different prints. Sleeves just pinned in this picture, I just need to sew in sleeves and do hem. 😍

A @christinehaynes #emerydress with scooped out neckline and half circle skirt. I also moved zipper from back to side. The shoulders were slipping down and gaping a bit so I sewed a line of stitching 1cm in from the neckline and used elastic to draw it in. It now sits snug with no gaping although results in a slight gathered look at neckline, which makes the dress look more casual I guess but it's very comfortable to wear.

I used Kaffe Fassett Philip Jacobs English Rose PJ 32 Quilting Cotton and lined it in a magenta voile from @spotlightstores.

I made a size 8 in the shoulders and 10 in the sides with the size 10 darts, a forward shoulder adjustment as well as lowering the neckline front and back.

I've had the @sewaholic #belcarrablouse pattern in my stash for years but somehow never made it. I finally got to it yesterday using a cut apart @kmartaus rayon blouse to make a test version and I absolutely love it. I bought two of the Kmart Short Angel Sleeve Top in the Navy , one in my size and one in a large size to play with because I liked the fabric and the gathered front yoke.

@tasiapona, your drafting is just magnificent and this pattern is just wonderful. It works so well as a simple woven tee and the shaping makes it so flattering.

I made this up in a size 10 with only a forward shoulder adjustment and it fits perfectly.

This is an older pattern but is still available for purchase and is a timeless style. I really like the sleeve cuffs cut on the bias, it results in such an elegant look. I really love how it looks tucked into skirts (the skirt is an A-line skirt I made years ago) but it also works beautifully untucked with jeans.

@christinehaynes #emerydress with a 4 gore skirt. Not my original plan but I made a massive cutting error and cut the original much fuller and longer skirt panels upside down 😱. I considered leaving it but in the end recut the skirt panels, which resulted in a much shorter and less full skirt (it's now slightly less than a half circle skirt) and a centre front seam. I think in this print it's not too noticeable and this is a good knee length on me.

Magnolia print #cottonsateen from @spotlightstores and belt custom-made by @buttonmaniac for a full vintage look.

Emery dress is made up with a slight forward shoulder adjustment and a 1" sway back adjustment.

Thank you so much @christinehaynes for resending my lost pdf file so I could get this dress made this weekend, I really appreciated it.

Insides are unlined as I didn't want to lose any of the stretch in the cotton sateen so I used facings instead of lining the bodice and will just wear the dress with a slip for a very fast project.

A Note from 2019

Although I’m not actively blogging any more, I still often refer to my notes on this website, it’s a great reference for me on my fitting issues, pattern reviews and a record of my sewing journey. In 2019 I made many older posts private, so you may get 404 page not found errors if you come here from an old link. I’ve also cleaned up bad formatting, corrected spelling and grammar and in some cases edited the text on older posts. I have made my old Flickr account private, so some posts that used Flickr may have missing images.
