Black Knit Dress – Free Pattern

July 19, 2022August 10, 2022 / Kitty/ 1 Comment

When I was writing about the black circle skirt I made for my youngest sister, I realized that I never wrote about my black dress. I must correct that oversight by making this post now.

Princess Dress for Barbie – Part 2: Sewing the Bodice

Christmas Dress – Inspiration and Free Pattern

January 16, 2020April 6, 2020 / Kitty/ 6 Comments

I have been planning to make myself a Christmas dress for years, ever since learning to sew, but somehow I never got around to finding just the right pattern for it. Last Christmas I finally made it.
