yep. 1st time I’ve made something for myself…well that I can remember.
It was a Wednesday evening, Adam was at tired and I had just bought a bunch of patterns at Joann’s for Tara’s wedding.
I went through all the fabric I had and looked at my patterns. We were going to Atlanta for the weekend and I decided I wanted a sundress to wear since it’s so HOT in Atlanta.
I ended up choosing the same pattern I used to make Kristi her dress and a green fabric I had purchased months ago from Fabric.com.
After a couple hours work I had this:
which in this photo needs ironing…
But it’s super cute-super comfy and with a belt, wearable to work!
Hopefully I can find appropriate fabrics for the other pattern I purchased (for $1 on sale!) and can continue to fill my wardrobe with my own creations.
And now for the Master Card Breakdown:
Fabric: $2.99/yd
Pattern: $1
Thread: Already owned
Time: 2 hours
Having women in your office gasping when you told them you made it last night: Priceless.
And yes-this is a $4 dress.
