Well it must be the warm weather that has me inspired I feel like sewing for Spring. The thing is I need a dress pattern that fits well and is flattering to my body shape…pear shaped…. tall order? maybe ..but I believe we all wish for it and some are successful and others are not. I am certainly in the latter category more often than not. I have made very few items of clothing for myself that I like!
So to-day is a new day and I have taken a pledge to myself that I will not buy new clothes but use the ones I have, re-design them and also use the stash of fabric that I have, you know the one I mean….like yours… we collect beautiful fabrics and somehow run out of time or energy to create. Well now is the time. There are so many fabulous sewing blogs out there in blogland that I have been totally inspired. I have purchased a pattern from Sew Mama Sew and when it arrives I hope to still be inspired and make myself a dress that I will wear many times. Oh the pattern…..the Rooibos Dress by Colette
