An Old Favourite

After the last sewing disaster it was time for a quick pick me up to get over the disappointment of wasting all that new fabric...

I stuck to my old friend, the Lady Skater by Kitschy Coo. I bought some lovely grey jersey fabric on ebay from someone selling their stash (this is now I get a lot of my fabric and probably why nothing matches anything in my wardrobe...) a while ago with this pattern in mind, I had even pre-washed it when it arrived so it was ready to cut!

Yes, this really was the best photo!


From deciding to make it to the final dress was about an hour and a half, just what was needed after the last make and a lot of dull alterations. I just need to get myself some tights that will go with it, these were worn in desperation.
