Reese Westmaas- Week 3



I worked on creating a half mockup of my dress to understand and makeup sure the overlap on the front closure was correct. I also learned I needed to adjust the  width of the armhole. I then cut out my pattern pieces and began putting together the dress. I sewed the lining and facing together first and then sewed the pockets into the front and back pieces. I finished the side and shoulder seams. Then I carefully sewed the lining and fabric together. After I clipped, trimmed, and graded the neckline extensively. Next I sewed the front closure placket down and began hand sewing the magnetic clasps on. I serged on the sleeves and finished them with a rolled hem to stop the crochet from unraveling. Finally I added beaded details in the corner for a fidget. I plan to add fabric bug buttons overtop the magnetic clasp thread on the CF.
