This is my Polka dots in Sunshine dress for BN.
So after moving to India things got even more hectic. In the midst of all fiasco with settling in a new place, I took a drafting lesson :-) Of all the things I could do in India, this is what I picked. Man, I am so happy I did. Now everything is so clear to me and I am like DUH! Not that I think just a couple of lessons is enough to learn everything about sewing or you'd become an expert seamstress right after the lesson. But I am so confident that next time you trace around those patterns you are gonna know why the heck they have it the way they do.
A few weeks from the lessons and some trials, I jumped in and drafted this dress for BN to wear at a wedding reception on Saturday.
I love the back so much. I had this idea about pleats in the back and I didn't want to do anything over the top, so I added like 2 inverted pleats in the back in yellow.
I love the way it turned out. It inspired me to make another one. That story, another day.
