I promised an update on the Audrey Dress I am sewing from This Book. It’s not one that I can whip up in an afternoon, like all my T-Shirt Makeovers. This one will take some time and we are smack in the middle of painting a couple of rooms and getting new furniture, so this project has hit the pause button. Here’s a little peak though.
The first snip into the fabric is always a bit scary for me. What if I mess up? 😉 Once the pattern is all pinned in place, I pause, gulp, then begin.
What do you think of my fabric choice? It’s a nice medium weight cotton in a small floral print. It was on the sale table at Hancock’s. I hope to wear this little dress nine months of the year. By itself in Summer and with shrugs or cardigans in Spring and Fall.
In my very first adventure with princess seams, I may be using too many pins, but really need help with that curve. So far, no puckers! Woo hoo!
The bodice is done, minus the straps. I’ll be glad when life settles down and I can get back to it!
When do you hit the pause button on your projects? Please tell me I am not the only on PAUSE! LOL!
