Girl of a different Era

Hey Friends,

Yep, you heard right! a fun red Christmas dress, and you’ll get to see how I made it.

It all started when my grandmother gave me the sales catalog from Joann fabrics! I stopped by and the sales were just awesome! Simplicity was selling some patterns for $.99 each! And most of the fabric was 50% off! Enter a large display case of vintage patterns, I was worse then a kid in a candy store and I had to keep reminding myself not to take all the patterns. I ended up taking 6 of them (I know, I know, what a hog) and the lovely simplicity R10157 caught my eye. It is not your typical ’50’s pattern. In fact it looks a lot like I was history bounding the Regency era!!

So I found the perfect fabric and notions (though I forgot the zipper…….. thankfully I had one at home that worked) and I brought it all home. I worked hard and finished up the dress a few days ago. (I even finished in time to wear to a play that very evening!)

Anyways I hope you all enjoy this video. And don’t forget to like comment and subscribe to both my blog and my You tube channel!
