I sewed the bird dress in two sittings today, and it turned out well. However, I decided two things:
1) The patterns in Simple modern Sewing are BAGGY! I need the XS without adding the 3/8 ” seam allowance.
2) I think I’ll add the optional drawstring and casing at the waist, because although this is cute from the front, it’s very baggy in the back. I cinched it up at the waist and it looks a lot better, so I think I’ll work on that tomorrow, and hopefully have a wearable dress this weekend!
your dress looks fab, I love the fabric 🙂
Thanks! I’m looking forward to wearing it!!!
