Woah, I forgot to write my blog...

I have sure neglected you blog, it’s been almost 2 whole months!! I’m back now I promise <3
So here is dress number 3 and 4 as I mentioned in the last post…

Both dresses are made with Vogue 8184 (one of my favorite patterns)

This dress was a commission piece. It was worn by “Rizzo” in a local production of Grease! No photos from the production yet. That is me in the picture but its pined up in the back as its a 10 to 12 and I'm an 8.



Fabric: Black and red polka dot printed cotton 3.5m @ 11.95m = $41.85
Red cotton lawn 1m @ 3.95m = $3.95
Pattern: Vogue 8184 (View c) $7.50
Year: 2010
Notions: Invisible zip $ 2.99
Time to complete: 12 hours
First worn: May-ish
Wear again? It’s now for hire and has been out 2 or 3 times!
Total Cost:  $56.40

  1. This pattern is definitely a winner. But where on earth do you go to find cotton lawn for $3.95/m? Clearly I'm shopping in the wrong place :P
