Making my mint dress


 For this dress I followed my toile however I had two layers of this dress so I ensured the seams were all in neatly, I also added a lining to the bodice. I also sewed the hem using a special foot that turns under the fabric whils you sew.


 
Thanks for reading!!

Minty Obsessions

 
Before summer started I found this dress on Cute Japanese Fashion but for £11 and postage I decided it would be cheaper to make one.
 
All together I think this cost me around £7 to make baring in mind I skimped on fabric and made it slightly more fitted.
 
This took me a while to make as it was mostly experimental and guesstimating, I also used french seams as I used sheer fabrics.
 

This is how the dress turned out, in the middle of this project I was really worried however after I finished I really liked the outcome. I think I look kind of strange in these pictures, maybe its because I'm waring 0 make-up.

 
These are the nails I painted to match my dress, I'm in love with coloured french tips at the moment and one of my friends actually thought I had them done at a nail salon!
 

Thanks for reading! what do you think of my dress and my nails??
