I FINALLY finished my 1st Vogue dress ever, Vogue 9024. I don't know why it takes me so long to finish up sewing projects anymore aside from just... life. Seriously. But at least I get things created at this point!
This dress is made from a sage green ponte knit and black and white honeycomb print ponte knit. Although I always go by my measurements, I still think I could have made this one maybe 2 sizes down. After washing (even with a prewash) the fabric may shrink some more so we'll see. But I really should be cutting like, a size 6 in ponte knits and an 8 in wovens from now on even though my measurements are far more like a 10.
I liked this dress because of how easily you could do colorblocking. And everyone knows how much I love colorblock!
This dress is actually an out of print pattern. The styling is a little more sophisticated than I normally opt for, but I still quite like the outcome of it.
I currently am in the process of drafting patterns my sister's wedding anniversary dress which is based on a Regency era style of a dress. I also am planning on a fun star-print romper thing and yes, still will be releasing those prints via Spoonflower. I have a lot of creative projects all at once, but that's how I like my life!
