Up Coming Sewing Projects

I am so excited to start blogging!!!!! I thought it would be neat to show you my up coming sewing projects. So here it goes......

My First Project

So several weeks ago I went to Hobby Lobby and found these two pretty cotton fabrics. I plan on making a knee length skirts out each one. Here are a few examples of what I am thinking of:

My Second Project

Awhile back I bought this floral linen on sale at Joann's. I wanted to use it to make a 1950's dress. The pattern I was originally going to use Butterick 6835 I couldn't find. So I decided to use the lovely Simplicity 1459!! I am going to make view A but with short sleeves.

My third project

A good friend of mine and I are each going to make this next dress together.

 ...............and we are making it out of this fabric

My four project

So I am soooo excited about this last one!!! I am going to attempt to recreate Elizabeth Bennet's Netherfield ball gown from Pride and Prejudice 1995 movie!!

 

 

I will have a separate blog post on this one when I finish it :)

 I searched and searched for a exact look alike fabric but I wasn't finding one. This is the closest one that I found. After several bodice mocks, I got the bodice to look the same as the dress and then cut the other pieces out. Now to sewing it!!!!!
