Chambray stash
« on: May 23, 2017, 13:18:43 PM »
Hi

I bought some Chambray a few months ago as I love the material....love the current trend of the off the shoulder designs...

soooo....drew a pattern from a top I have, extended it to make a dress, added some shirring to the waist, a touch of Broderie anglaise and voila.....sooo pleased with it....just need the weather to stay warm now  :flower:

Very pretty. I like the use of the decorative stitching above the broderie anglais. You should get some wear out of it this week, if the forecast is correct.

Jessie, who is very happy to be here!!  :),  but who has far too many sewing machines to be healthy, and a fabric stash which is becoming embarrassing.
