Here it is.....
It looks wrong, but it's not - just the angle the photo was taken on.
Two days ago I cut out and made myself a dress for summer.
I really like it. The best bit is that I drafted the pattern myself using my measurements and no other pattern. Luckily I have made many a costume/outfit using commercial patterns and have had to make alterations to fit the recipient so I have a fair idea of garment piece structure. I even have (somewhere stashed away) a 1950's clothing pattern making book. This is an Enid Gilchrist book and you have to draw up the patterns yourself from the diagrams and measurements given. I have made a couple of things from this when the kids were young. I remember there was 1 coat that I made that everyone always commented on when the child wore it.
If you want to know how I did up the pattern for this you only have to ask and I will do a tutorial.
