Vintage Fab

Piece by piece my handmade wardrobe is coming together. Now I've got a sewing machine and my first dress pattern. Look at this lovely! I can't wait to get some linen and whip it up!

Lovely to see someone beginning to sew their wardrobe! It will really be "you"!
Best of luck with all projects!!!

I just stumbled upon your site through stumbling onto other women's sites. Like you I dream of making my own clothes. I want to go the eco-friend, organic materials route. It has been years since I sewed clothes and I frankly can't remember, but I do have a new sewing machine. Hopefully this summer or fall I can round up a few books and re-teach myself how to sew and use patterns. It is the patterns part that freaks me out, but I am ambitious and will practice on muslin until I get things right. I hope you have luck with your new creative journey into making clothes.

P.S. hi from Canada.

A perfect pattern to start sewing with! It could be adapted in so many ways. Add darts, a sash...oh the possibilities are endless!!
