Such beauty and talent!! I've been in a sewing lull, but I'm picking up again. Working on DuBarry patterns right now. Just finished another incarnation of Hollywood 1908 (one of my favourite patterns!!)

made it in a novelty Halloween print and left it sleeveless for summer!!

 

[kamikat]

Lauren and AJ, both lovely dresses!

 

[SayCici]

Lauren, so so cute! Insert witty hint about repro-ing that pattern!

 

[BoPeep]

I cut this last night and just finished it! "Me-Made-May" is motivating me to get my wardrobe in order.

Kamikat, that dress is so cute! I'm getting a bit green (with envy, not nausea) at the sight of it... :eusa_clap

 

[Lady Jessica]

Love the red and black Inky! nothing like a little help from your friends...

Kamikat the butterfly print is awesome.

I finally had enough practice in to attempt a vintage pattern. No resizing, I risked using it as it was (a 30 bust) because it was a wrap, and it doesn't have to fit my shoulders (which are a mile wide). The pattern is all spirographs, and I have enough left over to make at least a shirt!

It's supposed to have double-fold bias tape around the neck, but I can't get it to follow the curves of the shoulder ties. Any suggestions on what to use instead? The curve is quite sharp, and I don't want to use a million little pieces of tape...

This is really cute! I just bought a pattern from wal-mart that looks like this a bit (the little bows at the top of the arms). I'm glad this one looks so good on you, I'm very encouraged right now!

Oooooooo I love that so much!!!! (((((Puffed sleeves))))

Everyone has been making some great things.
I finally finished my two dresses from one of my own repro patterns!

I LOVE this pattern, LOVE IT! Im going to have an army of these dresses by the time Im done. The skirt has such sassy flare. Squeee! And on the navy one, I finally got to use my 1940s cotton fabric.

I love them both! All the progress and more pictures are linked in my sig line
Yay sewing!

Wow Lady Day, both dresses are great, but I LOVE the navy one. It looks amazing!

 

[Sickofitcindy]

LD,
I love those dresses! In fact I loved them so much I promptly went to your Etsy and purchased the pattern. I love esp. what you did with the plaid. Too cute!

 

[SayCici]

LD, I love them both but there's something about the navy one that looks particularly amazing on you!

 

[Inky]

now that's how you sell a pattern!! i thought it was cute but now seeing them both, and especially the navy one - I LOVE it!!

 

[Lady Day]

Thanks ladies. I love the navy one too. The entire process of making the dress was to make that navy one
I'm glad they both turned out so well!
