Dress to impress!

Here is my attempt at making a dress from scratch, with a bit of help from the cat...and a *lot* of help from the ladies at sewing club.

Lay out pattern


Organise and neaten up bargain fabric (sale bonus from IKEA, and great fun was had ripping about a mile of seams apart)



Straighten it, fold it and measure to make sure its even



Or try to, Rosa cat was very keen to 'help'



So now I have a pattern laid out and am working up the guts to cut it out. I'll keep you posted.
