More Selfish Sewing

So leading on from my post about my new favourite fabric shop, to some more selfish sewing. One of my New Years Resolutions, which I pretty much stuck to last year, is to not buy any more clothes. However, I can make as many as I like!

So after visiting Goldbrick Fabrics recently, here is my first dress that I made. I chose a super light weight cotton floral print, to make a knee length summer dress for my Mum's 60th birthday party. I found a pattern I liked the style of online, adapted the pattern, and then set to work making.

Here are some finished images:

Here is a picture of me wearing the finished dress just as the party started! It was such a beautiful day for a party!!
