Each Monday you can link to a post on your blog sharing with us something that is handmade, homegrown, homemade (such as a recipe) or recycled/thrifted.
This does not need to be craft or sewing based. This is all about making our lives a little greener week by week.
A re-make!
It's a wet, wintery kind of day here in Melbourne. Perfect for staying indoors and sewing.
Sometime ago I made this dress from the Yoshiko Tsukiori's Stylish dress book. You can re-visit the post here. It was way to big and it has sat in my closet every since.
So today I unpicked most of the dress and made the necessary adjustments.

Sometime ago I made this dress from the Yoshiko Tsukiori's Stylish dress book. You can re-visit the post here. It was way to big and it has sat in my closet every since.
So today I unpicked most of the dress and made the necessary adjustments.
I started with the top, adding some darts to the bust and gathering to the bodice seam which joins to the skirt. I took a larger seam allowance as well for the side seams and under arms.
After cutting a large amount of fabric from the sides of the skirt, I used the same seam allowance and gathered it to match the top bodice piece.
The result. A much nicer fitting dress that I can now actually wear!
Please share below, we would love to hear about it.
Don't forget you can also upload your photo's to The Haby Goddess facebook page.
