A Beautiful Tunic

In basic sewing I class we made pants.  In BSII we made a tunic.  I think I found beautiful fabric.  Unfortunately its a lil snug.  This will end up being a present for my mom.



The finished product....with the poofy sleeves


Sleeve flounces (using french seams and side slips

MY MOM LOVES IT!

Simple sew dress from Simplicity.  I made it for Easter 2012.  Wanted something new.  Wanted to have an attainable deadline.  Had to make a muslin mock up first.  Pattern adjustments fit!!! Let's cut some fabric :)


The dress is actually two different sizes but it is one piece top and bottom. 
I added the pocket outline for more "casual" dresses ;)  Considering a jean dress from this pattern.


 I picked my favorite fabric .... black and white  LOL

First outfit with a zipper. I think I've got the hang of it.









Came out well ... don't you think?
