rose garden dress




original dress from debenhams
this is s totally different copy of the same dress as for the denim dress. this time i included pintucks ( which are on the original). The fabric is perhaps a bit fussy but the geometrical design really helped in doing the pintucks and the button holes on the back. The construction is basically the same as the denim dress except that for some reason the shoulder seams were too narrow to attach the lining in the normal way, i just used zigzag stich instead - much less satisfying. I made the sleeves simpler too as there is quite a lot going on in this dress. The ribbon rose turned out well and is from a tutorial i found on line. I am pretty happy with this - it turned out very neatly
