Pattern Details

Adapted from Alessi Bias Dress

Construction Process

Followed the instructions that come with the pattern. But once I tried it on I realised it was way to wide, so I took a similar dress I owned to mark up how much I wanted to take it in on each side.

One step I sipped was using the tear away vilene for the arm and neck binding, I assume it would have made my life a little easier and strengthened the neck and armholes! Alas I did not have any and wanted to start this project asasp…

Techniques and Skills

Making your own neck and armhole binding! Slowly getting more comfortable with it - oh and back darts!

Outcome and Evaluation

I love love love it so much and will be making more of this - as I've probably mentioned before - with some more time and less rushed … And 100% will be ordering this fabric again !!
