I made this dress over the weekend, I used a pattern from the book Sew Serendipity which was really good, very clear instructions!
Excuse the rubbish photo, I think there may be small finger prints on the lens so it is a bit blurry and I have no idea why I took it at the odd angle!! |
My only concern is that I used fabric from an Ikea duvet cover (got it for £3 in their reject section!) and I am worried someone recognises it when I am out and about! I have enough fabric to make at least another dress and a skirt (it is a king sized duvet cover) so it was a very cheap dress to make and I love the pattern. I will definately be keeping my eyes open for more duvet covers in the reject section of Ikea, as long as no one recognises this one!
Oh wow, this is great, thanks for sharing with Recycled Fashion Finds! Hey dont worry if people notice it is an Ikea duvet, hold you head up high and say, yes, I made it out of remnants! I think its wonderful. Well done!
