First dress sewn.
A complete novice and this is the first dress I have every made. The instruction book was good although some things were unclear due to my lack of knowledge.
The videos were brilliant and really helpful. Yes I would recommend this for a beginner. Pleased with the end dress, a few mistakes I admit but have learnt a lot.
Now shall be looking for a new pattern for my next endeavour. Hopefully will find something for a mature lady.

Versatile dress
This pattern is easy to put together. The dress can be dressed up for evenings or just a day dress, depending on fabric used. I pair my dress with a wide belt to finish the garment. I used fabric from my stash which was purchased from Seasalt when that company sold fabric. My next dress will be made from Italian cotton.
