Vogue 8241, White Tree Fabrics and Sew Deputy
We are on the final post of this sew-along with fabric from WTF.
It really is a beautiful dress- very simple but the fabric is sumptuous!
I wanted to make sure the finishing touches were not going to let the dress down. In my head I had a Downton Abbey style dress with a cord belt.
So at The Knitting and Stitching Show I bought some cord and some tassels from Aarti J to put on the end of the cord.
I also called at Duttons for Buttons so I could add a beautiful button…..when the lady pointed out the
Yorkshire Rose button there was no other choice! I am a Yorkshire girl!
I hope you enjoyed the Christmas Party Dress sew-a-long.

Luvverley lace dress and I think perhaps the tie at the waist might allow for second helpings of pud?!

Will look forward to seeing you in it 🙂 I did have a look at the kit, and it looks lovely, but I’m afraid I really can’t justify another ‘fancy’ make at the moment. I have a wardrobe full of lovely dresses, that barely get worn 😦 I’m impressed by how ‘simple’ it looks to make up, or that may be because of your great instructions… 🙂

Hahaha! Glad it makes sense to you! Was worried they would be wonky instructions! Lol

No ‘wonkiness’ detected at all 🙂
