Rhapsody in Blue

June 29, 2020,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I finished another outfit! This piece is from a vintage early ’60s pattern and it’s one of the more advanced looks I’ve made so far. I’m delighted with the way it turned out. This is the kind of dress I always want to buy and can never quite find. That’s one of the perks of sewing I suppose.

Dress: handmade by me! Fabric from Joanne Fabric, Shoes: Primark
