A vintage frock, a free pattern.


My lovely friend Ali wanted me to post pictures of all the outfits I wore this weekend but this will have to do. My new boots of course, a piece of appalling polyester from a garage sale donated by another Ali and the free hope wrap dress pattern, apart from sewing machine malfunctions I think it turned out ok. I think the truth of the matter is that my sewing machine was so bothered by the unnaturalness of this fabric that it baulked, skipped stitches and end up getting a service only to do the same thing afterwards on the same fabric. Fine on every other type of fabric, so no more polyester for me. However this is a great dress, I figure I have about 3 weeks to wear it before winter is done here and humidity kicks in.
